NBA Market: Chris Paul Traded to Toronto Raptors... They Will Release Him in the Coming Days
After being sidelined by the Los Angeles Clippers in his last season as a professional basketball player, the "Point God" could be returning to play.
Los Angeles Clippers, Brooklyn Nets, and Toronto Raptors have agreed to a multi-team trade that sends Chris Paul to the Toronto Raptors and Ochai Agbaji, a second-round pick of the Raptors in 2032, and cash to the Brooklyn Nets, sources told ESPN.
This move comes after Chris Paul was no longer part of the Clippers' dynamics months ago and has not played since then. His inclusion in the trade comes at a time when his immediate future in the NBA remains uncertain.
Toronto does not expect his immediate addition
The Raptors do not require Chris Paul to join the team and may continue engaging in conversations for potential short-term trades involving him. The deal also allows Toronto to get out of the luxury tax.
Brooklyn acquires an asset and cash to cover Ochai Agbaji's salary. Meanwhile, the Clippers free up a roster spot and save seven million dollars in taxes.
