Clippers' Chris Paul: Questionable to play Friday

Paul (thumb) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Spurs, Brad Turner of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Analysis:

Paul posted the quote "Back at it" on his personal Twitter account earlier Friday, which seemingly implies that he plans on playing, but the Clippers likely won't provide clarity on that front until closer to the 10:30 p.m. ET tip off. The point guard has already been medically cleared to return to the court following a month-long layoff with due to a torn ligament in his left thumb, so even if he remains out Friday, it's likely that he'll return to action at some point next week. Once Paul is formally active, he'll likely take back his starting role right way, which would result in Austin Rivers moving back to the bench.
