PORTLAND, Oregon, Dec 27, 2006 (AFP) - Reigning National Basketball Association Rookie of the Year Chris Paul of New Orleans will miss at least two games with a sprained ankle, the team said Wednesday. Paul sprained his right ankle when he came down on Seattle center Johan Petro's left foot late in the first quarter of the Hornets' 102-94 defeat on Tuesday. "We're going to wait for the swelling to go down," Hornets coach Byron Scott said. "For sure, he's out at Portland (on Wednesday) and he'll probably be out of the Denver game (on Friday)."
