Chris Paul, the 12-time NBA All-Star, is set to begin his final season with the Los Angeles Clippers, a franchise where he previously made his mark from 2011 to 2017, leading them to six playoff appearances. After a full 82-game run with the San Antonio Spurs last season, Paul is committed to one last push in the NBA.
