NBA Clippers reach one-year deal with star guard Paul: reports
Chris Paul, a 40-year-old guard and 12-time NBA All-Star, has agreed to terms on a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Clippers, according to multiple reports on Monday.
Paul returns to a club where he enjoyed some of his best campaigns from 2011-2017 for his 21st and possibly final season, ESPN and The Athletic reported.
The deal, worth $3.6 million, would allow Paul to be near his family in Los Angeles and give him a final chance at an NBA title.
The Clippers have added guard Bradley Beal and center Brook Lopez while resigning guard James Harden and together with Kawhi Leonard could make the club a formidable Western Conference squad.
In the past 10 seasons, the Clippers have gone past the first round of the playoffs twice, reaching the conference finals for the first time in club history in 2021 before falling to Phoenix.
Paul ranks second on the NBA all-time assists and steals lists after two decades in the league playing for New Orleans, Houston, Oklahoma City, Phoenix, Golden State, San Antonio and the Clippers.
The five-time NBA season assists leader and six-time NBA steals leader also helped the US Olympic team capture gold in 2008 at Beijing and 2012 in London.
Paul averaged 8.8 points, 7.4 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.3 steals last season for San Antonio. For his career, Paul has averaged 17.0 points, 9.2 assists, 4.4 rebounds and 2.0 steals a game.
