Clippers guard Chris Paul has been ruled out of Wednesday's Game 2 matchup at Houston, the team announced.
"He's not moving well," coach Doc Rivers said, per the Houston Chronicle. "That concerns me. It was not that hard of a decision."
Paul is dealing with a hamstring injury, which he suffered during the Game 7 win over the Spurs in the opening round. He also missed the first game of the series against the Rockets because of the injury. Guard Austin Rivers is expected to start in place of Paul.
Rivers added that Paul is expected to do some on-court work Thursday, reports the Orange County Register.
