Chris Paul ‘absolutely’ wants to stay in Phoenix

June 16, 2023 by Hoops Hype

Chris Paul didn’t look to go into detail about his present and future, but made one thing clear. He wants to stay in Phoenix. “Absolutely,” Paul said. “That’s why I’m there.” Paul addressed his situation with the Suns during an interview Thursday morning regarding his powerful new book titled, “Sixty-One – Life Lessons From Papa, On And Off The Court,” about his late grandfather, Nathaniel “Papa” Jones.

Stretch and waive Chris Paul? Keep CP3? Trade Deandre Ayton? Keep DA?

More on this storyline

FanDuel TV: “The Suns are actively engaged in trade conversations I’m told around the league about Chris Paul… They’re exploring multiple options with his future” @ShamsCharania with the latest on CP3 and the #Suns ☀ -via Twitter @FanDuelTV / June 14, 2023
The Phoenix Suns have received trade interest on Chris Paul since it was reported that he would be waived by the team if he remained on the roster at the end of his month when his $30.8 million becomes guaranteed. “It spurred on a flurry of trade talk and trade calls to Phoenix centered around Chris Paul,” said Adrian Wojnarowski ahead of Game 4 of The Finals on Friday. -via RealGM / June 12, 2023
Wojnarowski also reports that the Los Angeles Clippers, Los Angeles Lakers, New York Knicks and Golden State Warriors could pursue Paul if he becomes a free agent. -via RealGM / June 12, 2023
