It's been good vibes for Chris Paul, Devin Booker and the rest of the Phoenix Suns as they make a push towards one of the top seeds in the Western Conference for the upcoming playoffs. The Suns are currently 41-16 yet in many circles, they still fly under the radar. Perhaps that won't be the case come postseason time for a team that has stifled its opponents all year long.
One of the big reasons for the flip this year, Chris Paul. The veteran point guard has been the floor general for the Suns and has taken on the leadership role that was desperately needed. After passing Magic Johnson on Monday for 5th all-time on the NBA career assists list, Booker had some fun with the ball that was used in the game at the expense of CP3.
Hit up @DevinBook on eBay for Chris Paul's 10,142nd career assist to pass Magic Johnson for 5th all-time.

Bold starting price for the ball that will almost certainly not be sold but instead possessed by Chris Paul. Of course, the Suns superstar was kidding in all of this when suggesting it go on eBay. It's interesting eBay is the route Booker took given the rise of other outlets, most recently NFT's. Maybe there will be a Top Shot card of the Chris Paul assist that somebody will scoop up in the coming weeks if one is to be released.
Regardless, the Suns keep on rolling forward after the road win in overtime against the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday. With the likes of CP3 and Booker with Deandre Ayton, Mikal Bridges and others sprinkled in, the Suns have as good a shot as anyone to claim the Western Conference.
