Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports
After sitting out Saturday's loss to the Houston Rockets due to a strained groin, Chris Paul will return to the Los Angeles Clippers' lineup against the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday.
Through five games, Paul's averaging 17 points, 8.2 assists, four rebounds, and 1.6 steals, with the Clippers performing more than 18 points per 100 possessions better with him on the court.
After missing 32 games between the 2012-13 and 2013-14 seasons, Paul suited up for all 82 games last year, with Saturday marking his first missed outing in more than a year and a half.
