Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul's status is in doubt for Games 3 and 4 against the Denver Nuggets this weekend because of his left groin strain, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
He is expected to push for a return, but the possibility of recovering by Friday's Game 3 in the Western Conference semifinals is believed to be a significant challenge, sources said. The Suns have officially listed Paul as day-to-day.
Paul appeared to sustain the injury after battling to box out Nuggets guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope late in the third quarter in Game 2 on Monday.
