The Oklahoma City Thunder general manager Sam Presti spoke about Chris Paul, the guard acquired from the Houston Rockets this offseason:

“Having Chris Paul return to Oklahoma City is a really unique thing, and we’re really excited about what he can bring to the team, not just as a player but also as a leader. His ball handling skills, his ability to make shots, and just, again, to have another Hall of Fame player don the Thunder jersey in our first 12 years will be a really, really special thing for our organization, for our fans,” Presti said, per NBA.com.

This past season, Paul averaged 15.6 points, 4.6 rebounds and 8.2 assists per game.
