Ball Don’t Lie @Balldontlie
CP3 ALMOST got traded to the Heat but it didn’t workout because him and D-Wade both wore No. 3 😳

Warriors win in DC to open road trip. Steph Curry had 18 second half points after zero in first. Chris Paul a +17 in his return. Klay Thompson 25 points off the bench. Moses Moody solid in spot start. Jonathan Kuminga 21 on 10/13 FG. Warriors: 30-27, tied in 9th with Lakers. – 9:12 PM
Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Klay Thompson has 21 points in 19 minutes on 11 shots tonight. Six made 3s. He has games of 35, 23 and 21 in his first five games off the bench. This new second unit smoking the Wizards tonight. Warriors are +25 in Chris Paul’s 18 minutes. – 8:44 PM

Warriors up 60-58 at half in DC despite a scoreless Steph Curry. Went 0-of-7 and missed all six 3s, a -8. Two airballs. In a funk. Chris Paul looked good in his return: 6-3-4 plus three steals, a +10. Jonathan Kuminga 12 pts on 6/7 FG. – 8:04 PM

Productive first stint back from Chris Paul. Hit a 3 during a 12-0 run. Four rebounds. Three steals. Two assists, the second of which was a lob to Trayce Jackson-Davis to punctuate the shift. Most important stat: Warriors went +10 in Steph Curry’s time on the bench. – 7:48 PM
Kendra Andrews @kendra__andrews
Klay Thompson and Gary Payton II are the first subs for the Warriors. Chris Paul remains on the bench — but Curry also remains in the game. – 7:21 PM

No minutes restriction for Chris Paul tonight, but sounds like 24 is the high end. Here is Kerr on his return. pic.twitter.com/GNbe3PQWcj6:16 PM

Moses Moody will start in Andrew Wigginsā€™ place tonight. Chris Paul will take the Lester Quinones minutes (plus some). Here is Steve Kerr on the Wiggins absence and rotational dominos. pic.twitter.com/Ejcz9DgGJG5:45 PM

Kendra Andrews @kendra__andrews
Chris Paul wonā€™t be under any minutes restriction tonight, Kerr says. Could play half of the game.
He will play the minutes Lester QuiƱones has been occupying, playing all of the non-Steph minutes. Also will spend some time on the court with Curry. – 5:42 PM

More on this storyline

During the interview, Paul responded to Wadeā€™s question about his careerā€™s fulfillment without a championship, stating, ā€œStraight up ā€“ even though I think Iā€™m gonna win a championship before Iā€™m done ā€“ yes, absolutely. I canā€™t even process not winning a championship right now. Thatā€™s literally how Iā€™m built. But I love what Iā€™ve been able to do with my career. And I was probably a lot more stressed about that once upon a time.ā€ -via TalkBasket / February 29, 2024
In a revealing interview on this weekā€™s episode of ā€œThe Why with Dwyane Wadeā€ as a co-production of iHeartPodcasts and Wadeā€™s 59th & Prairie Entertainment, NBA veteran Chris Paul opened up about his departure from the Houston Rockets, shedding light on the circumstances surrounding the trade. According to Paul, he initiated the trade discussions with Rockets management, expressing his willingness to accommodate a potential new teammate. ā€œI basically got myself traded from Houston,ā€ Paul saidd. ā€œI called Daryl [Morey] and the coach, [Mike] Dā€™Antoni to tell them somebody could come [and] end up playing on the team with us.ā€ -via TalkBasket / February 29, 2024
ā€œI go over to the gym and Daryl calls me. . .He said, ā€˜I was just calling you to make sure you didn’t wanna go to OKC.’ I was like, ā€˜No, why I done moved 15 people to Houston.’ And he was like, ā€˜Okay I just making sure.’ He was like I would never trade you somewhere you didn’t want to go because you chose to come to us from the Clippers,ā€ Paul said. ā€œI’m at the house chilling. . .next thing you know [the alert] said that I was getting traded [to OKC]. And then my phone started ringing and it was Daryl calling.ā€ -via Clutch Points / February 29, 2024
