LeBron James Shares Heartwarming Reaction to Chris Paul's Clippers Return Despite New Rivalry originally appeared on Athlon Sports. For his 21st NBA season, 12-time NBA All-Star Chris Paul opted to return to the team he is most often associated with, the Los Angeles Clippers.

T hough Chris Paul returned to the Los Angeles Clippers last week on a one-year deal at the age of 40, he is not set on this being his final NBA season. Paul instead told ESPN's Malika Andrews that he is unsure of his career plans following the 2025-26 season.

Paul's return to the Clippers, where he starred for six years alongside Blake Griffin during the Lob City era, will be under far different circumstances. This time around, he'll be operating as a backup point guard, providing depth behind starter James Harden.
