Paul (groin) is active and will play in Thursday's game against the Warriors, Monte Poole of CSN Bay Area reports.

Analysis:

Paul missed the Clippers' previous two games and came into Thursday as questionable with a groin injury, but he evidently showed enough improvement for the medical staff to sign off on his return for a pivotal matchup with the NBA champs. There aren't any reports of Paul facing a minutes restriction, but it's something to keep in mind considering that it seemed doubtful heading into the day that he would even play. In any case, Paul should move back into the starting lineup, pushing Austin Rivers into a reserve role.
