Despite James Harden re-signing on a two-year, $81.5 million deal to stay with the Clippers, a starting role could still be in play for Paul. The point guard spot remains flexible, with Kris Dunn—who averaged just 6.4 points per game last season—currently slotted in as the starting wing.

The Milwaukee Bucks' are interested in signing Chris Paul as a free agent, but the veteran may already have other plans.

In an appearance on ESPN’s “NBA Today” Wednesday, Ramona Shelburne suggested that the most likely outcome for Paul is to sign with the Phoenix Suns. Paul played for the Suns from 2020 to 2023 and helped lead them to the NBA Finals in 2021.
