Chris Paul makes history with 42 points, 15 assists and six steals
Chris Paul did not mess around on Thursday in the Clippers' 126-115 win over the Warriors. He joined Heat forward LeBron James as the second player to record 40 points and 15 assists in a game - but he is the first to also have five steals, at least since they started recording the statistic in the 1973-74 season.
He finished the night with 42 points, 15 assists and six steals.

Two of his assists came from Blake Griffin dunks - in a span of 37 seconds.
Even though Paul was the highlight of the night, it was hard to ignore the Warriors' Steph Curry - he was 9-of-14 in 3-point shooting and recorded 39 points (also, uh, 10 turnovers. Can't win at everything).
