New Orleans’ playoff hopes seemed certain to dissolve when the team announced Feb. 1 that Paul would need left knee surgery. The star point guard helped the Hornets (33-35) reach the playoffs the last two seasons and had his club tied for eighth place in the Western Conference at the time of his injury.
The Hornets are coming off a rare win without Paul, 108-100 over the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday that snapped a three-game skid. David West(notes) scored 24 points and Darren Collison(notes) had 18 points and 14 assists.
New Orleans isn’t the only team giving Golden State problems.
The Warriors, owners of the second-worst record in the West, have lost 20 of 25. They fell 124-121 to the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday.
Golden State had a chance against the defending champions, but Stephen Curry(notes) and Monta Ellis(notes) missed 3-pointers in the final seconds. Ellis’ attempt bounced on the rim three times before falling aside at the buzzer.
