Paul and the Suns finished the season as the first seed in the Western Conference, and they also had the best record in the entire NBA.  

He was traded to the Suns from the Oklahoma City Thunder in the summer of 2020, and in his first season with the franchise they made the NBA finals last year. 

The trip to the playoffs also ended a ten-year playoff drought for the franchise, and it was the first time in Devin Booker's career that he had been to the playoffs. 

The next two games of the series will be in Dallas, and all the pressure is on the Mavs to avoid going into an 0-3 hole.
