Phoenix Suns fans react to Chris Paul's incredible Game 4 shot vs. Los Angeles Clippers
Chris Paul may have slowed down a little bit at the age of 37.
But he proved he was still the Point God in the Phoenix Suns' 112-100 win over the Los Angeles Clippers on Saturday at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, a win that gave the Suns a 3-1 series lead heading back to Phoenix for Game 5 on Tuesday.
Paul had 12 points in the fourth quarter, including a huge circus shot basket that put Phoenix up 109-96 with 2:57 left in the game.
He finished with 19 points in 37 minutes, shooting 8-for-17 from the field. He also had three steals, three blocks and nine assists.
The Suns were +21 when he was in the game.
But all anyone wanted to talk about after the game was Paul's incredible shot that might have been the clincher for the Suns in Game 4.
