NBA Players React to Chris Paul's Heartfelt Post After Leaving Spurs

16-time All-Star Chris Paul made a somewhat unsurprising decision to sign a one-year, $3.6 million farewell deal with the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday. As is custom for a departing player, Paul said his goodbyes to San Antonio, the Spurs organization and his teammates in a heartfelt Instagram post.

Players across the league and hundreds of fans responded to Paul's tribute post, including a handful of Paul's running mates in San Antonio last season.

Paul is expected to play a rather diminished role in Los Angeles next season, as recent reporting from ESPN's Brian Windhorst explained that Paul and the Clippers entered this marriage for what is expected to be Paul's final NBA season with the expectation that Paul won't even see the floor some nights.
