Chris Paul to be Waived by Suns, Could CP3 Sign With The Lakers??? | Chris Paul Lakers 2023
The Chris Paul era in Phoenix has come to a close.
In a surprising move, the Suns will reportedly waive the veteran point guard, according to B/R and TNT's Chris Haynes, making him a free agent.
According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, the Suns are still "exploring multiple options" with Paul in addition to waiving the point guard, including a trade or stretching his contract.
ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported Paul "continues to want to return to the Suns" as the team explores options with his future.
The Suns finished the regular season fourth in the Western Conference with a 45-37 record. They defeated the Los Angeles Clippers in the first round of the playoffs in five games before falling to the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference semifinals in six games.
Paul, who turned 38 on May 6, missed Phoenix's final four postseason games while nursing a groin strain.
Paul's scoring had also declined in each of his three seasons with the Suns. While he averaged 16.4 points, 4.5 rebounds and 8.9 assists during the 2020-21 season, he finished the 2022-23 campaign averaging 13.9 points, 4.3 rebounds and 8.9 assists.
The odds for the #Lakers to land #ChrisPaul currently sits at +225 with Pointsbet Sportsbook. It would be an intriguing fit. He would be able to play alongside LeBron James and Anthony Davis. He could also be a cheaper option at point guard than Kyrie Irving would be for the Lakers.
So Z Nation, should the Lakers sign CP3 this #NBA Free Agency ???
