John Reid of the New Orleans Times-Picayune reports:
New Orleans Hornets point guard Chris Paul worked in practice Sunday with a brace off over his surgically repaired left knee.
During the portion of the practice open to the media, Paul took free throws and jump shots on an alternate court from his teammates as strength and core trainer Carlos Daniel and assistant trainer John Ishop observed.
Hornets Coach Monty Williams said Paul was getting used to the brace he’ll probably use throughout the regular season.
“We’re just trying to stay on top of anything that could be nagging,” Williams said. “It’s such a long season. When a guy is coming off a surgery, you want to be as cautious as you can to keep him from having any setbacks.”
