CHRIS PAUL (SAS)
HYBRID
NBA ROLE: TWO-WAY SUPERSTAR/MASTER SHOT-CREATOR
(Point God!) Chris Paul: one of the best players of all-time; CP3 hasn't missed a beat over the years; tenacious defender & master commander on offense: Paul oversees the flow of games like no other – CP3 always looks to run & shot-create in transition, gradually breaks teams over time – Paul looks off defenders like a star quarterback before making decisions; better than anyone else in the league at picking when to takeover games and impose his will (normally prefers heating up in the second half after establishing a flow/foundation for his teammates); can hurt you from all over, incredible pace as a midrange scorer ('stop on a dime' fadeaways, step backs, crossover pull-ups), bullseye shooter from beyond the arc – CP can get a bucket whenever he wants; signed w/ Spurs (2024): an all-time (great) leader, CP3’s an ideal floor general to pair w/ (Undisputed Franchise Player) Victor Wembanyama
