Along the way, Paul was a good bet for nightly double-doubles and solidified his placing as the league's and fantasy's best point guard when healthy. Paul's scoring output grew to over 22 per game in the playoffs, which saw his assists drop to 6.3 per contest due to him shouldering more of the team's scoring load. However, the Clippers were sent home packing after losing four consecutive games to the Grizzlies, clouding Paul's future with the franchise as he now enters free agency this offseason. The Clippers can sign their point guard to a maximum five-year deal worth $107.3 million, over $27 million more than any other team could offer, but with uncertainty surrounding who the team's coach will be next season and reported tension between Paul and running mate Blake Griffin, a massive decision lies in CP3's future. Regardless of where Paul ends up, he should continue to be fantasy's best option at the point guard position and taken in the first round of drafts.","date":"Sun May 5"},"fullName":"Chris Paul","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Paul put to rest any remaining questions about the health of his knees after playing 60 games last season and finishing as the top fantasy point guard in his first year with the Clippers. CP3 finished third overall on our Player Rater with averages of 19.8 points, 3.6 rebounds, 9.1 assists, 2.5 steals and 1.3 3-pointers per game while shooting 47.8 percent from the floor and 86.1 percent from the free throw line. The point guard position is as good and as deep as it's ever been, but Paul clearly stands alone at the top in the fantasy game. Draft him accordingly.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Oct 10"},"playerRater30DAY":14.2,"playerRater15DAY":9.9,"positionRank":2}
