Haynes: Chris Paul cleared to return vs. Denver

Phoenix Suns star Chris Paul will indeed play tonight against the Denver Nuggets after being out 15 games with a fractured left thumb, according to Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports.

ANALYSIS: If we're being perfectly honest here, Phoenix has been playing so well that we all kind of forgot Chris Paul was hurt. That's not to take anything away from what Paul does this for the team. This is a simply a case of the rich getting richer.
