Fantasy Impact
Paul goes from being the second fiddle to James Harden in Houston to being the top option for the Thunder. Injuries have limited him to just 58 games each of the past two seasons and he'll be 34 for the upcoming campaign. Despite age and injury history, he is still one of the best point guards in the league. Paul averaged 15.6 points, 4.6 rebounds, 8.2 assists, and 2.0 steals in 58 games for the Rockets last season.
