(UPDATE: Paul is back and in the starting lineup tonight.)

The Dallas Morning News is reporting that All-NBA point guard Chris Paul is listed as a game-time decision for tonight's game in New Orleans against Dallas.

ESPN reported yesterday that his return would be either tonight against the Mavs or Wednesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Paul hasn't played since Jan. 29, in a 108-106 loss against the Chicago Bulls. The fourth-year point guard is averaging 20 points and 11 assists per game this season. New Orleans is 21-17 this season with Paul in the lineup - 12-21 without him..

It should be an entertaining game, especially if one of the best point guards in the NBA decides to play.

Tip-off is at 7:00 p.m. and can be seen on either NBA TV or locally on KXTA 21.
