Paul supplied 15 points (5-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, 11 assists and two steals over 30 minutes during Tuesday's 119-116 loss to the Suns.
EDGE Analysis
When Paul is dialed in, he gives the Warriors the extra spark they need to carry them into the second and fourth quarters, but his ability to fill the role has been uneven. An Illness and a leg injury have kept him off the floor recently, but a downturn in minutes was a culprit before his injury designation. Now that he is close to 100 percent, Paul should get back to his customary usage.

Paul (illness) has no injury designation in advance of Tuesday's game against Phoenix.
EDGE Analysis
Paul has appeared in just one contest since Nov. 28, missing two contests due to a lower leg contusion followed by a 20-minute return prior to sitting due to an illness. However, he'll miss only one game due to the illness and should reprise a 20-to-30 minute role versus the Suns on Tuesday. Paul posted six points and six assists in a Nov.22 matchup against Phoenix.

Paul (illness) is expected to play in Tuesday's game against the Suns, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Paul was able to go through a full practice Monday and looks on track to return to action Tuesday after missing Friday's 138-136 loss to Oklahoma City due to the illness. An official update on Paul's status for Tuesday should be available when the Warriors release their injury report later Monday.

Paul (illness) practiced Sunday, Ron Kroichick of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Paul was sidelined for Friday's loss to the Thunder due to an illness, but it appears he's cleared the aliment and should be good to go Tuesday in Phoenix. However, his official status for that game won't be known until Monday afternoon. While Paul returned to practice, Klay Thompson (illness) sat out, so the Warriors may still be without a key contributor.

Paul (illness) will not play in Friday's game against the Thunder, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Paul started feeling under the weather Friday morning and was carrying a questionable tag before this update. Brandin Podziemski has played well for the second unit in recent weeks, so he could get extended playing time with Paul out. Cory Joseph hasn't seen the floor much for Golden State, but he may get an opportunity Friday.

Paul is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Thunder due to an illness.
EDGE Analysis
Paul's late addition to the injury report is a bad sign of his availability for Friday's contest. If the veteran point guard is ruled out, Cory Joseph and Brandin Podziemski are candidates to receive increased playing time.

Paul registered two points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds and six assists in 20 minutes during Wednesday's 110-106 win over the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
The Warriors eased Paul back into action Wednesday, but he could be the antidote to what currently ails the team. Aside from Stephen Curry, the rest of the starting lineup is underperforming despite going 3-2 over the last five games. Paul has not recorded double-digit points since Nov. 20 against the Rockets, when he was still operating as a starter, and Paul's ability to move the ball is what's needed to provide a spark in the second unit.

Paul (lower leg) is available for Wednesday's game versus the Trail Blazers.
EDGE Analysis
Paul has been upgraded from probable to available Wednesday after missing the previous two games with a lower leg contusion. The veteran point guard was averaging 10.6 points, 9.4 assists, 4.0 rebounds and 1.2 steals in 29.2 minutes before suffering his injury against Sacramento.

Coach Steve Kerr said Paul (lower leg) participated in Tuesday's practice and is probable for Wednesday's game versus Portland, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Paul has missed back-to-back games due to a lower leg contusion but is expected to return Wednesday. The veteran point guard has been an inconsistent scorer for Golden State this season, but he's been a steady distributor, handing out 7.3 assists per game.

Paul (lower leg), who has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Clippers, underwent an MRI on Wednesday that revealed a contusion, and he'll be re-evaluated Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Paul sustained a lower leg injury late in the first quarter of Tuesday's game against Sacramento, and he'll be forced to miss at least two matchups. A better idea of his status should come into focus once he's re-evaluated, but Cory Joseph and Brandin Podziemski should see increased run in Paul's absence.
