Despite the Golden State Warriors‘ deep water situation, Chris Paul seemed to have found a way to stay on a surface level. Amid the three-game losing streak, the veteran point guard took his time out to witness his daughter’s high school basketball game. Moreover, he just didn’t watch the game but also kept his rivalry aside and gave a shout-out to Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum.

The Bay Area team failed to capitalize on their 5-game winning streak start to the season. Despite Stephen Curry’s consistent performances in every game, the superstar still requires help from the supporting cast. CP3, who takes care of the Dubs’ second unit, is also yet to explode in the offense corner. In the meantime, he went on to fulfill his father duties.

Moreover, in the next story, he shouted out to Celtics All-Star Jayson Tatum. Paul’s daughter wore the Celtics star’s signature sneakers for the game and he displayed it to his fans. The caption on the story read, “And she reppin in her JT’s!!”

Considering Paul’s playoff record in the NBA, he would be proud of his daughter’s first baby steps on the knockout stage.

The veteran point is currently in the last lap of his career and will the Warriors union make it meaningful for CP3?

Will Chris Paul beat the playoff jinx and win his first ring?

Paul is currently playing in his 19th NBA season and the Warriors are the sixth team that he has represented during his long career. Importantly, this is the first team that made him come off the bench for the first time in his career. While the bold decision initially paid off for the Dubs, now they struggle to set their foot on the ground. However, on paper, the Warriors truly have depth in their roster and it could translate to the court in time. So the 12x NBA All-Star has all the possibilities to get his first ring.
