Eric Moody breaks down the fantasy values of Chris Paul and Jordan Poole on new teams heading into the 2023-24 season. warriors DubNation
From a fantasy perspective, Paul continues to hold significant value despite being 38 years old. He averaged 13.9 PPG, 8.9 APG, 4.3 RPG, and 1.5 SPG in 32.0 MPG with the Suns last season. Paul can still score, create assists and hit triples, giving him a solid foundation for fantasy production. He joins a Warriors' team that led the league in APG over the past two seasons.
Perhaps the most intriguing part of this move is that Golden State will have two of the most established point guards in NBA history on the same team. Paul and Curry are two of the four active guards in the league with 20,000 career points. Paul became the first player in NBA history to reach 20,000 career points and 10,000 career assists in 2021.
The addition of Paul to the Warriors' rotation gives the team more catch-and-shoot scenarios. No team scored more points per game on such field goal attempts than Golden State last season. The Warriors serve as the perfect opportunity for Paul to thrive as a role player at this stage of his career. His skills and the Warriors' offensive prowess make Paul an enticing option for fantasy managers this upcoming season.
He then had an underwhelming regular season and struggled in the playoffs with a 34.1% field goal percentage, the second lowest among players with at least 50 shot attempts.chooses not to re-sign with the Wizards. Poole will likely take over Beal's spot in the starting lineup, where he has proven he can excel in the past. Poole averaged 24.6 PPG, 3.1 RPG and 4.6 APG in the 43 games he started for the Warriors last season compared to 15.9 PPG, 2.3 RPG and 4.4 APG in his games as a reserve.
