The Washington Wizards will discuss rerouting Chris Paul via trade with the Los Angeles Clippers and Golden State Warriors, reports Shams Charania of The Athletic while on the Pat McAfee Show.
Paul was sent out by the Phoenix Suns as part of their trade with the Wizards for Bradley Beal.
Paul could still be bought out and become a free agent, which would allow him to sign with any team other than the Suns. Under that scenario, Paul would likely choose between the Lakers and Clippers.
Paul was only guaranteed $15.8 million for his 23-24 salary, but his fully $30.8 million is now guaranteed as part of the trade, which makes it a financially lucrative transaction for him.
