[Saba Sports News] The Golden State Warriors face a major decision regarding Chris Paul this offseason. With a $30 million salary for the 2024-25 season set to become fully guaranteed on June 28, the Warriors might consider facilitating a trade, as paying the 39-year-old Paul that much seems unlikely.
According to NBA reporter Marc Stein, the Los Angeles Lakers and San Antonio Spurs are potential suitors if Paul leaves the Warriors. Paul is close friends with LeBron James, and there has long been talk of them playing together before their careers end. The Lakers also need a veteran point guard.
San Antonio could be an intriguing option for Paul, despite their 22-60 record this season. With emerging star Victor Wembanyama, Paul could provide valuable veteran leadership.
This season, Paul played 58 games (18 starts) with the Warriors, averaging 9.2 points, 6.8 assists, and 1.2 steals in 26.4 minutes per game.
While he is no longer the star he once was, Paul could still be a valuable asset in the right situation.
