Chris Paul Says He’s Staying Ready as Clippers Weigh His Future

The 40-year-old guard remains under Clippers control until a trade, a release or the trade deadline.

Overview

  • Paul told Prime Video’s Good Sports he is working out daily, does not want his career to end on his Clippers exit, and has not chosen a next team.
  • He is away from team activities but still on the roster, meaning he can be dealt before the deadline or waived to reach free agency.
  • The Clippers sent him home after 16 games on a road trip, with multiple reports citing clashes with coaches and staff.
  • Recent commentary, including Dwyane Wade on NBA on Prime, floated Houston as a possible fit, though concrete interest has not been reported.
  • Paul signed a reported one-year deal around $3.6 million in July, making any trade or waiver relatively straightforward on paper.
