Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Chris Paul took the time after his game on Wednesday to make the day of a fan whose birthday it was in the stands.
After dropping 12 points and seven assists in a six-point win against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Paul noticed a Thunder fan wearing his jersey. The fan held a sign that signified that it was her birthday and as a present, Paul gave her an autograph as well as the jersey off of his own back.
CP3 found out it was her birthday, so he gave her his jersey right off his back ✊

Paul, in his first year with the Thunder, is having a bit of a bounce-back year after a bitterly disappointing end to his two-year career with the Houston Rockets.
Along with second-year guard Shai Gilgeous Alexander and a few other players, Paul has helped the Thunder defy expectations this season as they now sit at 31-20 and firmly in the Western Conference playoff race.
The 34-year-old Paul is averaging 17.1 points, 6.6 assists and 5.1 rebounds per game while shooting 47.7 percent from the field and 35.6 percent from deep.
