Chris Paul Records First Double-Double With Phoenix
4 years agoPhoenix Suns point guard Chris Paul rectified his inauspicious start with the franchise by notching a double-double in Game 2 during Saturday's loss to the Kings. Paul dropped 22 points on 8-for-19 shooting to go along with 12 assists, five rebounds and two steals, looking much more like the All-Star that Phoenix believes he can be for the franchise. For as impressive as his three at the halftime buzzer was, his zero turnovers stand out even more. It may take the Suns some time for their offense to hum at peak efficiency, but Paul still has tremendous upside for a group that has the potential to compile points in droves with him at the heart of it. They'll run it back against the Kings on Sunday, which bodes well for Paul's fantasy outlook.
