Growing up, Chris and Charles worked at a gas station owned by their grandfather, Nathanial Jones. He's the son of Robin and Charles Paul and has an older brother (also named Charles). Paul was born in 1985 in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

However, games played are something managers will need to factor into their decision-making. Even in limited minutes, he should be able to return something close to top-80 per-game value. He remains one of the best passers in the game and is an elite scorer from the mid-range. If he does come off the bench, there is a chance he plays around 26-28 minutes per night. He has played in excess of 31 minutes in each of his 18 seasons, a number that could definitely fall this season. Paul's ability to slow down the offense should actually fit right in, ensuring he will be a fantasy-relevant player. One benefit is that although he is on the wrong side of 35, the Warriors are not what you would call a youthful team. Injuries are starting to take their toll, an issue that is unlikely to go away. Paul averaged a career-low 13.9 points per game last season, playing in just 59 games. Stephen Curry is firmly established as the starting point guard, a role he is not going to relinquish - and nor should he. After starting every single game of his career, there is a very real chance he will come off the bench after being traded to the Warriors in the offseason. He ended the 2022-23 season as the 31st-ranked player in nine-category leagues, the lowest he has ranked since entering the league. Now 38 years of age, Paul comes into his 19th season with some uncertainty around his role.
