Chris Paul’s son, Chris Paull II, watched his father play on Thursday against the Phoenix Suns. Heading into the game, everyone knew the San Antonio Spurs point guard was on the brink of history.

San Antonio Spurs guard Chris Paul entered Thursday's game against the Phoenix Suns needing just one steal to break his tie with Jason Kidd for the second-most steals in NBA history. It didn't take long for him to get his milestone steal, recording it midway through the first quarter of the contest.

The Phoenix Suns (26-28) play their second of a five-game road trip at the San Antonio Spurs (23-29) in Austin on Thursday.

Paul officially sits in the second spot all-time with his steals total. He surpassed Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd's 2,684 steals during his NBA career. He still trails the all-time record set by John Stockton with 3,265 steals—this is going to be very difficult for Paul to beat at this point of his career.
