Chris Paul did not play the final 4 minutes and 47 seconds of the Rockets-Warriors game with knee soreness.
CP3 is doubtful for the game against the Kings.
Per ESPN, Chris Paul was a crunchtime spectator during his Houston Rockets debut, cheering on his teammates from the bench for the final 4 minutes, 47 seconds of Tuesday's 122-121 comeback win over the Golden State Warriors, a decision coach Mike D'Antoni attributed to lingering soreness in the star point guard's left knee.
"Dragging his leg a little bit; I had to get him out of there," D'Antoni said.
Paul was on his feet for most of the final 4:47, smiling and rooting for his teammates, while waving a towel in celebration on several occasions.
"I'm a hell of a cheerleader, man," joked Paul, who wasn't certain whether he would play in Wednesday's road game against the Sacramento Kings.
