At 36 years old and in his 16th NBA season, Chris Paul has delivered nothing short of excellence in his first year with the Phoenix Suns. Wednesday night was another prime example of it.
In his team’s 123-95 win over the Denver Nuggets in Game 2 of the Western Conference semifinals at Phoenix Suns Arena, Paul contributed a 17-point, 15-assist outing with zero turnovers. According to Statmuse, it was his third career playoff game with 15-plus points, 15-plus assists and no turnovers, which has happened only three other combined times in the 3-point era (dating back to 1979-80).
