Los Angeles Clippers point guard Chris Paul suffered a fractured left index finger in practice Saturday and will likely miss the team's preseason game Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets, reports Rowan Kavner of NBA.com. 

Paul will have the injury re-evaluated before the Wednesday’s game, also against the Hornets, but the injury is not believed to be serious. 

The Clippers are currently playing their preseason games in Shanghai, China.

Guard Austin Rivers has also suffered an injury of the team's overseas trip, sustaining a mouth injury during practice on Friday. He will miss both preseason games.
