Chris Paul opens up on scoring struggles to begin Warriors tenure Chris Paul is relying on the law of averages as he navigates his shooting slump.
Held in check against Cleveland Paul racked up five points (2-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and one steal over 25 minutes during Sunday's 115-104 loss to the Cavaliers.
Impact Paul's inefficiency from the floor has been a concern in recent matchups, but he's usually been able to prop up his fantasy value through his assists. However, he was held to a season-low two assists while shooting inefficiently from the floor once again Sunday, leading to one of his worst performances in a Warriors uniform. Over his last four outings, he's shot just 14.3 percent from the floor while averaging 2.7 points, 7.7 assists and 2.3 rebounds in 27.0 minutes per game.

Orchestrates offense Paul ended with one point (0-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, 13 assists and two steals in 28 minutes during Friday's 141-139 victory over Oklahoma City.
Impact Despite scoring just one point, Paul had a huge impact on Golden State's offense, helping the team score 141 points in a victory. The veteran point guard has tallied 21 assists and just three points over his last two outings. Paul's elite playmaking has allowed Stephen Curry to enjoy a more off-ball role.

Warriors' Chris Paul comes off bench for 1st time in his NBA career
Chris Paul has come off the bench for the first time in his NBA careerOCTOBER 30, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Coming off bench Sunday Paul isn't starting Sunday's game against the Rockets, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.
Impact Draymond Green has been cleared to return to action during Sunday's matchup and will be in the starting lineup despite a minutes restriction. With Green back in action, Paul will operate as a reserve for the first time in his 19-year career. Despite his bench role, Paul should maintain ample playing time after averaging 12.0 points, 10.5 assists and 4.0 rebounds in 33.5 minutes per game over his first two appearances with the Warriors.

Dishes 12 dimes in win Paul amassed 10 points (5-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds, 12 assists and three steals in 33 minutes during Friday's 122-114 victory over the Kings.
Impact Paul again struggled with his shot, only slightly improving on the poor 4-for-15 mark he posted from the field during Tuesday's season-opener. However, the veteran point guard shined as a distributor, notching a game-high 12 assists against a tolerable three turnovers. Paul also racked up three thefts in the win, giving him five steals through two contests on the campaign. Paul has gone 0-for-8 from three-point range thus far this season, and his overall shot percentage figures to creep up as he finds a groove in that regard. Even with his jumper not falling, though, Paul has maintained fantasy viability through his work as a passer and defender.

Chris Paul, the floor general the Warriors needed Chris Paul is new to the Warriors, proselytized into their culture. And already, he has proven to them he is worthy of their trust.

Flirts with double-double Paul posted 14 points (4-15 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 6-7 FT), nine assists, six rebounds and two steals across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 108-104 loss to the Suns.
Impact The Warriors' first unit was incomplete without Draymond Green (ankle), and though Paul may slide out of the starting five when Green returns, the veteran guard should be assured a significant role with his new team. Though Paul's efficiency from the field and three-point range left much to be desired, he otherwise provided his usual useful numbers in the assists and steals columns. Perhaps most notable about Paul's stat line was the fact that he finished second on the team in minutes behind Klay Thompson. The 38-year-old will likely receive occasional rest days during back-to-back sets, but when healthy, Paul looks like he could end up handling starter-level minutes regardless if he's deployed with the top unit or second unit.
