Jake Fischer reports that the Clippers plan to collaborate closely with Chris Paul and his representatives at CAA as they search for a new landing spot for the veteran guard.
According to Fischer, Los Angeles “fully intend[s]” to help Paul find a suitable team, and he may be the most likely player to be moved once the December 15 trade window opens and many recently signed players become eligible to be dealt.
While Paul prioritized staying near Los Angeles during the offseason – wanting to remain close to home as his career winds down – Fischer raises the possibility that his priorities may have shifted.
With his role shrinking and his minutes decreasing, Paul’s frustration reportedly increased, leading Fischer to question whether consistent playing time will matter more to the future Hall of Famer than geographic comfort as he weighs his next move.
Paul has played 21 seasons for 7 teams, including the Clippers and Hornets. He has averaged 16.8 points, 9.2 assists and 4.4 rebounds in 1,370 regular-season games.
He was selected to play in 12 All-Star games, and has won the Rookie of the Year award.
