“Chris Paul putting up these numbers at age 36 is simply unreal”: NBA Twitter lauds the Point God for becoming the 5th player in history with 100 15-assist games

Chris Paul recorded 20 points and 19 assists in the Suns’ win over the Spurs, making him the 5^th player in history to record 100 15-assists games.

Chris Paul is widely considered as one of the greatest passing guards in league history. Ever since the 6-footer Paul set foot on the NBA hardwood as a young 20-year-old, he instantly established himself as a premier playmaker, setting up and finding his teammates.

Dishing out over 9 assists per game during the span of his career, CP3 is one of the rare players who manages to make his teammates around him better. Even in his 17^th season, the “Point God” doesn’t seem to slow down. In fact, some would say the pass-first PG is aging like fine wine.

The 11-time All-Star displayed his incredible basketball IQ during the Suns-Spurs matchup. Chris was absolutely clinical in the 115-110 win, dropping 20 points and dishing out 19 assists, grabbing 8 rebounds,  finishing the game with only 2 turnovers and an efficient +/- of +14.

Recording his 100^th 15-assist game, Paul is now only the 5^th player to do so, joining the likes of John Stockton (293!), Magic Johnson (180), Steve Nash (110), and Oscar Robertson (106).
