Suns star Chris Paul played for the first time in a month Wednesday night, but his return wasn't nearly enough against the Boston Celtics in Phoenix.
Paul, who has been out since Nov. 7 due to a heel injury that forced him to leave a loss to the Philadelphia 76ers, had four points, four rebounds and four assists in 24 minutes, but it was Boston that rolled, 125-98.
The Suns went 9-5 over the past month with Paul sidelined.
The 37-year-old entered Wednesday averaging 9.5 points and 9.
