5. It’s not easy to get four steals in an NBA game, never mind against one of the best teams in the league. But Paul did just that against the Los Angeles Clippers, on the road.
Furthermore, the game was a defensive battle. The Clippers walked away with the 90-88 win, but Paul did all he could to earn a different outcome.
One of Paul’s biggest plays of the game came in the closing minute of the game when he picked Paul George’s pocket as the former Thunder wing drove to the rim.
