Always thinking the game, always manipulating the floor, Thunder point guard Chris Paul is constantly surveying ways to gain an advantage on the floor. In a fiery, hotly-contested fourth quarter of the NBA’s 2020 All-Star Game, Paul noticed a way to generate a bucket for his team.
With Team Giannis’ Kemba Walker guarding him, Paul rushed up from the baseline on multiple possessions to set a screen for his longtime friend and NBA colleague LeBron James. Paul’s screen forced the much smaller Walker to get switched onto James, who attacked for an easy driving dunk that gave Team LeBron a three-point edge at 156-153.
