After missing three consecutive games as well as being doubtful to play tonight against the New Orleans Pelicans, L.A. Clippers guard Chris Paul is active and playing tonight.

Paul missed the Clippers' matchups against the Dallas Mavericks, Los Angeles Lakers, and Denver Nuggets with a strained hamstring suffered against the San Antonio Spurs last Thursday, and L.A. has dropped all three games. The Clippers will certainly welcome their floor general back.

Teammate J.J. Redick, however, will miss his second consecutive game with the same injury, a hamstring strain.
