Chris Paul drops a major hint about his NBA future

Veteran guard Chris Paul on Thursday dropped an interesting hint about where his NBA future might be.

Paul appeared on “The Pat McAfee Show” and discussed the factors that are influencing his thinking as to where he might play next season. The veteran guard made clear that he still wants to play, but that he also has to take his family into consideration.

“I talked to my family about it. My son just turned 16, my daughter’s 12. The past six seasons, I’ve lived without them,” Paul said. “I’ve been away from them for the last six years. It’s a little different. That’s the conversation.

“I want to be dad. I still love to play. … My daughter actually hoops now. Before I flew out here, I was in the gym with her for 20 minutes. 20 minutes doing ballhandling with her, and it was priceless. You don’t get that time back.”
