CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Los Angeles Clippers point guard Chris Paul hinted at his potential retirement prior to the team’s 131-116 win against the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday, in what is expected to be his final game in his home state of North Carolina.
The Winston-Salem native released a video on social media about 90 minutes before tipoff showing highlights of him playing for several NBA teams throughout his 21-year professional career. The video also includes Paul from childhood through high school and his days playing at Wake Forest and getting drafted into the league.
In the post on X, Paul wrote “Back in NC!!! What a ride…Still so much left…GRATEFUL for this last one!!”
After the game, Paul declined interview requests to speak about his future through the team’s public relations
