Just when you thought the Los Angeles Clippers had caught a break with the knee injury to Steph Curry, something happens to their star.
Chris Paul suffered a broken hand during Game 4 of the Clippers’ playoff series with the Portland Trail Blazers on Monday night. CP3 was trying to reach his hand in as Gerald Henderson was driving to the basket in the third quarter and jammed his right hand on the guard’s body.
Paul suffered a broken third metacarpal on the play. That is the bone in the hand that connects the middle finger to the wrist.
The Clippers announced that Paul would be out for the game and re-evaluated when the team returns home to LA.
The winner of the series gets the winner of the Rockets-Warriors series, which could be Golden State, which will be without MVP Curry for around two weeks.
