The Phoenix Suns are in Colorado to take on the Denver Nuggets on Thursday evening, and it appears as if very good news is going to be announced about Chris Paul.     

The superstar point guard is listed as probable for the game, which means he is likely to return for the first time since before the All-Star break.
