On Friday night, the Phoenix Suns will be in Salt Lake City to face off with the Utah Jazz, but for the game, they could be without their All-Star point guard.

Chris Paul has missed the last four games with a heel injury and is listed as questionable for Friday. 

Underdog NBA: "Chris Paul (heel) listed questionable for Friday."

Paul got injured in a game on Nov. 7 against the Philadelphia 76ers (which they lost 100-88).

In the four games that he has missed, the Suns have gone 2-2, and they are coming off a win over the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night.

They beat the Warriors 130-119, and their entire starting five scored in double-digits (Cameron Payne led the way with 29 points).

On the season, they are 9-5 in their first 14 games, which has them tied with the Denver Nuggets for the second seed in the Western Conference.

Paul is not in his prime anymore, but he is arguably the team's most important player.

The future Hall of Famer is averaging 9.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 9.4 assists per contest to start the season.

He's also been good on defense averaging 1.7 steals per contest.

Since joining the Suns, he has helped them become one of the best teams in the NBA (they made the NBA Finals in 2021 and were the first seed in the west in 2022).

As for the Jazz, they come into the game with a 10-6 record in their first 16 games.
