Nuggets Head Coach Michael Malone Says Chris Paul Is Arguably The Greatest Point Guard Of All-Time

 

Chris Paul has been defying father time at age 36, posting per-game averages of 15.0 points, 4.5 rebounds and 10.7 assists per game on 48.9% shooting while helping the Phoenix Suns set themselves up as the best team in the NBA.

On Thursday night, Paul was cleared to return against the Denver Nuggets after missing the last 15 games due to broken thumb. The Phoenix Suns point guard picked up where he left off and finished the game with 17 points, 4 rebounds and 13 assists on 60% shooting from the field.

In wake of Paul’s return, Nuggets head coach Michael Malone had nothing but ultimate praise for CP3, whom he once coached during his tenure with the New Orleans Hornets. According to Malone, Paul is arguably the greatest point guard of all-time.

Per ESPN:

 

“It’s kind of scary,” Nuggets coach Michael Malone said while Paul was warming up at Ball Arena. “I’ve gotten the chance to coach Chris, know him. arguably the greatest point guard of all time… I knew he was close to coming back and I was just hoping that wouldn’t be tonight.”
