Chris Paul is day-to-day after sitting out the Hornets' loss to the Bulls on Monday night.
He suffered a concussion on Sunday night against the Cavaliers. He was wheeled off the court, but gave a thumbs up to the crowd.
New Orleans next faces Dallas on Wednesday.
"He looked good this morning in the meeting," coach Monty Williams said Monday night. "He took that brace off his neck. He was watching film intently, as if he was playing the game. I know he’s in some pain. You don’t take a hit like that and not be in some pain, but people don’t realize how tough that kid is. He’s played through pain all year long, with his knee and his hip. His knee is back to 100 percent. He takes falls all the time, but last night was a different scenario. I almost have to be the uncle/father/brother, and just say, 'Look, dude, you’re not playing tonight.' "
