Chris Paul is not only one of the longest-tenured active players in the NBA, but he has also marked his place in league history.
He might not have an NBA championship in his 20 seasons, but Paul’s leadership and on-court skill set continue to be a desirable asset for prospective teams.
The most recent example of this was last season with the San Antonio Spurs, as he helped cultivate a locker room culture for an up-and-coming team.
While his time with the Spurs likely has come to an end, other teams around the league appear to be considering him as a free agent.
Insider Marc Stein recently said that two of Paul’s former teams, the Los Angeles Clippers and Phoenix Suns, are looking at a possible reunion.
“The Los Angeles Clippers, in addition to Phoenix, are another of Paul’s former teams that is said to be weighing a second engagement with the 12-time NBA All-Star, who turned 40 in May. Paul’s family stayed in Los Angeles this season while Dad played in South Texas,” Stein wrote, via NBACentral.

Paul might not have as much to give as he did earlier in his career, but as he showcased last year with the Spurs, he can still contribute.
A contending team would be lucky to have him, so it will be interesting to see which franchise offers the best deal.
Players of this caliber don’t come around often, people who play the game the right way and want to be the best teammates they can be.
Even if Paul is just an inspiring voice in a locker room, signing him could turn out to be valuable, especially if he can win his first ring in the process.
