Chris Paul was on a plane when he found out he was traded to the Wizards 😳
Seemed like that was still a touchy subject this morning.

🆕 @TheAthletic
For the second Monday in a row, we discuss a possible reconnection between the LA Clippers and Chris Paul.
But it’s not just how and why the Clippers would be interested in CP3 2.0. Here’s a look at the other stakeholders involved too.

In light of Clippers monitoring Chris Paul situation, this interaction from @TheShopUN where Paul showed his appreciation for Tyronn Lue as an assistant in 2013-14 hits a little different.

The Wizards could complete the two-team trade right now and then trade CP3 later; the primary advantage of doing a three-team deal straight away is to end up with a larger trade exception, especially if one of the players they take back fits into Rui’s $6.26M exception. – 5:51 PM

What contracts would the Wizards want from the Clippers in a Chris Paul swap?
Eric Gordon is non-guaranteed for next year, so I’d imagine a scenario in which the trade happens before his June 28th guarantee date would be preferable.
Morris, RoCo and Batum are all expiring. – 5:47 PM

#Clippers could flip 2 of Marcus Morris, Robert Covington and Eric Gordon as expiring contracts to DC to make the Chris Paul $ work. Would be a tough depth loss for a player they probably hoped would be available for the minimum, though it’d guarantee they beat the Lakers to him. – 5:46 PM

If the Wizards had just let Bradley Beal walk a year ago, they could’ve tried to tank for Wemby and had no long-term money on the books.

Chris Paul should go down as one of the greatest Suns ever. Anytime we see an epic individual playoff performance in the future, his closeout efforts will be among what those are stacked up against. He’s right up there with Booker, Jones and Williams for turning it around here. – 5:19 PM

Regardless of how you feel about Bradley Beal’s fit on the Suns, this move was a no-brainer. They were going to cut Chris Paul anyway, so they basically gave up Landry Shamet, 2nd-rounders and pick swaps for a 3-time All-Star. That’s a low-risk, high-reward move you have to make. – 5:16 PM

Highest ratio of mid-range attempts to 3-point attempts (min. 200 total FGA outside the paint) last season. 4 Suns in top 14. One of these $50M dudes probably needs to shoot more 3s.

More on this storyline
The Clippers are indeed interested in pursuing Chris Paul, according to a league source not authorized to speak publicly about another team’s player. The Clippers are evaluating what it would take to acquire Paul, who must first decide if he is open to staying in Washington. Bleacher Report’s Chris Haynes was first to report LA’s interest in trading for Paul. -via The Athletic / June 19, 2023
