There’s no doubting the winning culture Chris Paul brings to the Phoenix Suns
Paul has been a winner in every environment he played in. Every team he has played on he brought them to the playoffs. Last season the Thunder had low expectations after losing most of their stars and it was Paul who led them to the playoffs and became an All-Star in the process.
After the Suns’ success in the bubble, they made the move for Paul and it quickly put them on the map. Aside from the national television schedules and media attention Paul brought his winning culture and gave Suns fans the belief that they could make the playoffs after a 10-year drought.
The proof is in the Sun’s record. Phoenix kept their main core so how did they all of a sudden become a top 4 team in the West? Chris Paul. Paul makes the other players around him better. He has unlocked a version of center Deandre Ayton, that fans were hoping he would be when he was drafted.
Paul acts as a coach and mentor to the younger players and aside from being a point guard, he puts his teammates in the best positions to succeed.
When Paul landed in Phoenix he brought big expectations and so far he has lived up to them. He will be an integral part of the Suns’ success and key if they want to end their drought and make a run in the Western Conference.
