Paul notched 12 points (5-10 FG, 2-6 3Pt), one rebound, nine assists, one block and four steals in 36 minutes during Sunday's 118-110 win over the Jazz.
EDGE Analysis
Paul came one assist shy of a double-double as he took over point guard duties amid Stephen Curry's (rest) absence. Paul has started only 16 games for the Warriors this season, and while his numbers have taken a hit in every category as a reserve, Paul's playoff record is outstanding. Over 149 playoff appearances, Paul has averaged 20.0 points, 8.3 assists and 4.9 rebounds.

Paul ended Friday's 108-106 loss to the Mavericks with nine points (3-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, eight assists, one block and four steals over 31 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Paul didn't reach double digits in any individual category, but he nonetheless posted a strong all-around performance that included leading Golden State in assists (eight) and steals (four). The veteran point guard saw more than his usual allotment of court time -- he had logged less than 30 minutes in each of the previous 16 games in which he came off the bench. Being locked into a reserve role has dramatically dented Paul's fantasy value, as he's on track to average less than double-digit points for the first time in his career, while his current average of 6.8 assists per game would be the second-lowest mark across his 19 NBA seasons.

Paul closed Friday's 115-97 victory over Charlotte with 11 points (5-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), seven rebounds and nine assists in 33 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Paul was a late addition to the starting lineup Friday after Klay Thompson was scratched due to a knee issue. Paul took a back seat in scoring to dish out a game-high nine assists, which was the 16th time he's reached that mark this season. The severity of Thompson's knee injury is unclear, but Paul would figure to see more minutes and starts should the former be sidelined for an extended period of time.

Paul is starting Friday's game against the Hornets, Kendra Andrews of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Paul came off the bench in his last seven appearances but will draw the start Friday after Klay Thompson (knee) was a late scratch. Over 14 starts this year, Paul has averaged 12.7 points, 7.4 assists and 4.2 rebounds in 30.7 minutes per game.

Paul supplied zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds, seven assists and two steals across 23 minutes during Tuesday's 113-92 win over the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Paul continues to struggle, posting zero points in 23 minutes. Despite still playing meaningful minutes off the bench, it is obvious that Paul has lost a step on both ends of the floor. At this point, managers should view him as nothing more than a streaming option for assists and steals.

Paul totaled 12 points (5-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt), four rebounds and 14 assists across 24 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 137-116 win over Memphis.
EDGE Analysis
The double-double was Paul's fifth of the season, while the 14 assists were a season high. The veteran point guard hadn't dropped double-digit dimes since returning from a hand injury in late February, and over 12 games since rejoining the lineup he's averaging 10.7 points, 6.8 assists, 4.3 boards, 1.6 threes and 1.5 steals.

Paul will move back to the bench for Saturday's game versus the Lakers, John Dickinson of 95.7 The Game San Francisco reports.
EDGE Analysis
This is an expected move with Stephen Curry back in the lineup after a three-game absence. With the Warriors getting healthy again, Paul's fantasy appeal will likely trend down.

Paul amassed 19 points (9-19 FG, 1-4 3Pt), nine rebounds, eight assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Monday's 112-102 win over the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
Paul was impressive on both ends of the court and delivered a vintage performance, ending just one rebound and two assists shy of recording a triple-double. Paul will experience an uptick in terms of fantasy value as long as Stephen Curry (ankle) remains sidelined. If that's the case Wednesday against Dallas, Paul would be in line for yet another start and 30-ish minutes of action.

Paul finished with 10 points (4-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt), four rebounds, nine assists and three steals in 29 minutes during Saturday's 126-113 loss to San Antonio.
EDGE Analysis
Paul moved into the starting lineup, covering for the injured Stephen Curry (ankle). While it wasn't the most electrifying performance, Paul did exactly what managers needed him to do, racking up nine assists and three steals. Curry is slated to miss at least another game or two, meaning Paul should see a short-term bump.
