The Clippers got away with the win in Minnesota Monday night with a so-so performance from Chris Paul, who returned after a two-game absence. He had his moments, though, like this three from almost 40 feet at the end of the first half.

CP3 is finishing at a good rate near the basket, but his three-point shooting is not where it needs to be (34.6 percent this season compared to 39.8 in 2014-15).
