Chris Paul returned in the second quarter of the Phoenix Suns' first-round series against the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday after suffering a right shoulder contusion.
With the Suns up 11 in the second quarter, LeBron James leaped over Paul for an offensive rebound and putback layup, drawing L.A. within 38-29 with nine minutes, 24 seconds remaining in the half.
Paul swiped for the ball with his right arm, losing his balance. As his momentum took him toward the floor, the point guard's head knocked against the right arm of teammate Cameron Johnson.
