Chris Paul left tonight’s game at Cleveland at the 4:36 mark in the third quarter following a collision with the Cavaliers’ Ramon Sessions. Paul’s forehead went into Sessions’ shoulder on the play.
Paul was taken from the court on a stretcher after alerting trainers of neck pain. He was fully conscious and did not lose feeling anywhere at any time. Paul was taken to the Cleveland Clinic for precautionary tests.
All tests taken at the hospital were negative and revealed that Paul suffered a concussion.
He rejoined the team at the arena and will accompany them to Chicago on tonight’s charter. He is listed as out.
