The Golden State Warriors acquired Chris Paul during the off-season. The front office parted with Jordan Poole to bring the veteran ball-handler to the Bay Area. For most of this season, Paul has comprised a bench role, making it the first time in his career that he’s led a second unit.
The notion behind having such a talented veteran coming off the bench is that it ensures the team’s offense and ball movement remain consistent when Steph Curry heads to the bench. When speaking to the media following the Warriors’ victory over the Charlotte Hornets on Friday (March 29), Paul admitted that he’s enjoying playing with Golden State’s aging star trio.
