Warriors' Chris Paul Out for 4-6 Weeks Following Hand Surgery

Injury occurred during victory over Pistons; increased roles expected for Podziemski, Joseph, and Moody in Paul's absence.

Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul is expected to be out for four to six weeks following a successful surgery to repair a fracture in his left hand.
The injury occurred during the Warriors' 113-109 victory over the Detroit Pistons on Friday, January 5.
This is Paul’s fifth surgery to his left hand over the course of his 19 NBA seasons.
In Paul's absence, Warriors coach Steve Kerr plans to increase the playing time of rookie Brandin Podziemski, Corey Joseph and Moses Moody.
Despite Paul's injury, the Warriors are boosted by the return of Draymond Green, whose suspension was lifted on Saturday, January 6.
