Chris Paul, who played over 20 seasons in the big league, has finally spoken up, and this news looms large. Clippers fans are shattered and heartbroken to see their favorite player go, who now plans on his retirement.
Chris Paul has scored incredibly while playing for a number of teams, including the New Orleans Pelicans, Golden State Warriors, and the Charlotte Hornets. However, his career high has to be when he scored 43 points, 13 rebounds, 21 assists, and 9 steals against the Memphis Grizzlies in December 2007. The future Hall of Famer holds back an emotion for his fans and the teams he has played before he was with the Los Angeles Clippers.

Shams Charania of ESPN reported Paul’s retirement news. After a subtle hint thrown by Paul on Instagram earlier this Saturday, the news seemed to be vague until Charania confirmed it.
“Los Angeles Clippers guard Chris Paul is retiring after this season – his 21st campaign in the NBA. Paul is a 12-time All-Star, an 11-time member of All-NBA teams, a selection to the 75 greatest players list, nine-time All-Defense and the 2006 Rookie of the Year”, Shams Charania tweeted on X. The future Hall of Famer has decided his fate and wants to book his retirement to spend time with his friends and family. Yes, that’s correct; it's the same case when Magic Johnson and Shaquille O’Neal announced their retirements.
One of the greatest point guards of the NBA, Chris Paul, has scored a total of 23,060 points during his NBA career and has earned many accolades. For an outstanding player like Paul, retirement feels like doomsday for the big league, and fans are really upset about this after Charania’s news on X.
While finishing off this season, the 41-year-old NBA All-Star is undoubtedly a Hall of Famer, and no one can deny this. As fans await one last performance of their favorite player this season, Chris Paul has yet to play many matches and kiss his final goodbye with football and the big league.
