Chris Paul's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul has agreed to push back the date to his $30 million guaranteed contract for the 2024-2025 season. The veteran guard will push back the date until late Sunday night. Doing that gives the Warriors a chance to explore trade partners for the All-Star guard. Paul certainly isn't in his prime anymore, but he can still contribute to an NBA roster. He should still be able to be a viable fantasy option depending on what team decides to pick him up.

Golden State Warriors point guard Chris Paul has been linked with a move back to Los Angeles. NBA insider Marc Stein believes that Paul would draw interest from both the Clippers and Lakers if he hits free agency. However, he adds that interest in bringing him to the Lakers "might not be unanimous within the organization." The suggestion of Paul reuniting with the Clippers definitely raises a few eyebrows as well, especially if James Harden and Russell Westbrook stick around. Paul has a non-guaranteed $30 million contract for next season, and he would become a free agent if Golden State doesn't guarantee the contract by June 28. The 12-time All-Star remains a big name in the NBA, but his numbers have been declining for several years. Paul provided only 9.2 points, 6.8 assists, and 1.2 steals to fantasy managers off the Warriors bench in 2023-24. A starting role away from San Francisco could give his numbers a boost.

Golden State Warriors point guard Chris Paul is expected to remain with the team next season by head coach Steve Kerr. "I really hope we bring him back next year," Kerr said following Tuesday's 118-94 loss in the play-in tournament against Sacramento, which ended Golden State's season. It also ended Paul's run of 13 consecutive playoff appearances. The veteran, who will turn 39 next month, found himself as a bench piece for the first time in his career in 2023-24 and finished with career-low numbers in multiple areas. He had 9.2 points, 3.9 rebounds, 6.8 assists, and 1.2 steals across 26.4 minutes. Paul has a non-guaranteed $30 million contract for 2024-25.
