SHENZHEN, China – Chris Paul fractured his left index finger in practice Saturday and is not expected to play in Sunday's preseason game against the Hornets.
The injury is not considered to be serious and Paul will be re-evaluated prior to the Clippers game against the Hornets Wednesday in Shanghai.
The injury in practice is the second to a Clippers guard in China. Austin Rivers is also dealing with a mouth injury he suffered Friday and will likely miss both preseason games in China.
