The Clippers made stunning headlines overnight Tuesday into Wednesday when the organization announced they were “parting ways” with 12-time All-Star Chris Paul, news that Los Angeles president of basketball operations Lawrence Frank confirmed in a statement to ESPN. It was stunning enough that Paul, a surefire Hall of Famer who had announced earlier this year that the 2025-26 season would be his last, will now seemingly be without a team. Even more stunning was the manner in which the situation played out: Paul, one of the best point guards in league history, sent home by the Clippers.
