Top Chris Paul News

  • Suns' Chris Paul: Dishes 13 assists in loss

    Paul accumulated 15 points (5-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds and 13 assists across 32 minutes during Friday's 135-127 loss to the Kings.

    Although Paul no longer holds the lead as the NBA's assist leader, he averages a blistering 9.1 dimes per game, and results similar to Friday will continue to drive that average higher. His ball distribution numbers will likely see a noticeable spike in the coming week with Kevin Durant (ankle) likely to rejoin the starting lineup. When Durant played with the Suns for three games back in March, Paul averaged 8.0 points, 9.3 assists and 4.7 rebounds.

  • Suns' Chris Paul: Posts well-rounded line in loss

    Paul accumulated 18 points (8-17 FG, 2-4 3Pt), four rebounds, four assists and one steal in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 122-111 loss to the Lakers.

    Paul finished second on Phoenix in scoring behind Devin Booker's 33 points, but the Suns were outscored by 16 points while he was on the court. The veteran point guard was much quieter than usual as a distributor, finishing with his lowest assist total since Feb. 1. Paul came into the contest averaging 10.2 assists over his previous nine games.

  • Suns' Chris Paul: Double-double against OKC

    Paul notched 14 points (5-15 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 13 assists, six rebounds, three steals and one block across 33 minutes during Sunday's 124-120 loss to the Thunder.

    Paul came away with his 16th double-double of the season in the narrow loss. The veteran point guard has scored in double digits in eight straight games, helping to cover for the latest Kevin Durant (ankle) absence, and over that stretch he's averaging 13.5 points, 10.1 assists, 4.9 boards, 2.0 steals and 1.6 threes.

  • Suns' Chris Paul: Hits double-digit assists again

    Paul chipped in 11 points (5-13 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 11 assists, five rebounds and one steal across 30 minutes during Monday's 123-112 loss to Golden State.

    Paul struggled with his shot in the loss, especially from deep, as he missed all four of his three-point attempts. However, the veteran point guard distributed the ball with aplomb, notching 11 assists while turning the ball over just twice. Paul's scoring has been way down this season -- his 13.5 points per game is on pace for the lowest mark of his career -- but he continues to thrive as a playmaker, averaging 9.1 dimes per contest.

  • Suns' Chris Paul: Dishes out 16 assists in loss

    Paul amassed 16 points (6-13 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 16 assists, six rebounds and one steal across 39 minutes during Saturday's 128-119 loss to Sacramento.

    Though the Suns couldn't piece together a win, it was business as usual for Paul, who submitted a double-digit assist total after missing that milestone for two straight games. Superlative assist totals keep Paul's fantasy value afloat this season, as he's scaled back his involvement as a scorer this season, with his 11.0 field-goal attempts per game representing a career-low average. Paul has been further hurt by converting at a substandard 43.1 percent rate from the field, but the veteran point guard may see his scoring production recover over the final month of the season. With Kevin Durant (ankle) not scheduled to be re-evaluated until late March, the Suns are lacking in established scoring options beyond Devin Booker and Deandre Ayton.

  • Suns' Chris Paul: Excels as playmaker, defensive pest

    Paul closed with 18 points (6-8 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine assists, four rebounds and four steals in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 132-101 win over Oklahoma City.

    Paul enjoyed a magnificent night across the board, delivering the goods in the assists and steals categories as per usual but finally pairing the production in those two areas with the efficient scoring that's largely been missing from his game thus far in 2022-23. The future Hall of Fame point guard had been limited to 8.0 points per game on 36 percent shooting from the field over his prior three contests and is converting at a 43 percent rate for the season, more than six percentage points below his mark from the 2021-22 season.

  • Suns' Chris Paul: Sneaky double-double in win

    Paul posted 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-7 3Pt), six rebounds, 10 assists and two steals across 29 minutes during Friday's 125-104 win over the Bulls.

    Paul remained quiet on the offensive end but made up for it with 10 assists and two steals. With Kevin Durant now in town, Paul doesn't have to shoulder as much of the scoring load. That said, racking up assists shouldn't be a problem, given the talent around him. With age continuing to nip at his heels, Paul's value continues to slowly decline, although he remains an elite contributor in both assists and steals.

  • Suns' Chris Paul: Another poor shooting effort

    Paul closed with two points (1-8 FG, 0-4 3Pt), two rebounds, 11 assists and two steals in 33 minutes during Wednesday's 105-91 victory over Charlotte.

    Paul continued his shooting struggles in the win on Wednesday, but he did salvage the night by racking up 11 assists and a couple steals. With Kevin Durant now in town, the veteran guard can stick even more to his role as distributor moving forward. With so many scoring weapons on this team, Paul could easily average double-digit assists by the end of the season.

  • Suns' Chris Paul: Scores 16, hands out six dimes

    Paul accumulated 16 points (6-10 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-5 FT), two rebounds and six assists in 32 minutes during Friday's 124-115 win over the Thunder.

    Paul had a decent performance Friday and played his part in the win for the Suns, but this outing was a step back compared to what he'd been doing in recent games. This was his second-lowest assist tally of the month, and he also snapped a run of seven straight games with eight or more dimes. The veteran floor general is averaging 11.2 points and 10.0 assists across nine February appearances.
