Former teammates show Chris Paul love after NBA assists milestone

Chris Paul passed Jason Kidd on Sunday for second on the NBA's all-time assists leaderboard, and the San Antonio Spurs rewarded him with a neat tribute Monday.

Paul reached the 12,092-assist milestone with his third assist of the game -- a pass that resulted in a 3-pointer for Victor Wembanyama.

The Spurs celebrated Paul in the locker room postgame, then gifted him a basketball and a plaque with the names of each player he has assisted. He was moved to tears when talking to the team afterward about the achievement.
