Chris Paul To Sign With Bucks, Clippers Or Suns

Chris Paul will sign with the Milwaukee Bucks, Los Angeles Clippers or Phoenix Suns, according to Shams Charania of ESPN. 

Paul is an unrestricted free agent. He will not re-sign with the San Antonio Spurs. 

“Chris Paul has levels of interest from the Clippers, Suns and the Bucks,” Charania said on SportsCenter. “I’m told he had a conversation with Bucks’ officials on Wednesday. He told the Pat McAfee Show several weeks ago that his preference is to stay on the West Coast. He is sorting through options right now. Whether on the West Coast or a team like Milwaukee.”

Paul appeared in all 82 games for the Spurs last season. He averaged 8.8 points, 3.6 rebounds and 7.4 assists while shooting 42.7% from the field, 37.7% from beyond the arc and 92.4% from the free-throw line. 

A 12-time All-Star, Paul has played for the New Orleans Hornets, Clippers, Houston Rockets, Oklahoma City Thunder, Suns, Golden State Warriors and Spurs. He’s one of the top point guards in NBA history. 

A top 75 player of all time, Paul has career averages of 17.0 points, 4.4 rebounds and 9.2 assists. He has never won a championship. 

Paul and the Suns lost to the Bucks in the 2021 NBA Finals in six games. Phoenix blew a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven series.
