Plays 19 minutes Friday Paul had five points (2-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists and two steals across 19 minutes in Friday's 122-117 preseason loss to the Spurs.

Impact Paul struggled from the field and logged only 19 minutes. Still, he looked healthy and found a way to contribute in other categories, something he'll have to do more often in the regular season to remain relevant in most fantasy formats. Paul should see plenty of minutes even if the Warriors decide to use him in a bench role, and it should be interesting to see lineups featuring Paul, Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson at the same time.

Back with starters Paul is in the starting lineup for Friday's preseason game against the Spurs, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Warriors brought Paul off the bench Wednesday, but it certainly seems like the plan is to keep him with the first unit come Opening Night. Perhaps we get some clarity in the coming days, but Paul will likely have a big role either way.

Increased role on tap Paul will start Friday's preseason game against the Lakers and could play into the 20-minute range, Shayna Rubin of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Impact Anthony Slater of The Athletic also relays that Paul, who played exclusively with the starters during his Warriors debut, will get some run with the second unit during Friday's exhibition. Coach Steve Kerr said they've had the veteran point guard run the bench squad during intra-squad scrimmages and want to see how that looks in a live-game setting.

Decent in Warriors debut Paul had six points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and five assists across 13 minutes in Saturday's 125-108 preseason win over the Lakers.

Impact Paul had his Warriors debut and played as a starter with Draymond Green (ankle) sidelined, and he had some decent moments while playing alongside Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson. Paul is expected to play as the sixth man when the entire team is healthy, but the veteran floor general should see enough minutes to be a decent fantasy option in most formats.
