Free agent point guard Chris Paul has agreed on a one-year, $11 million-plus deal with the San Antonio Spurs, sources told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski on Sunday.
Paul was waived by the Golden State Warriors earlier Sunday. He had a Sunday deadline to guarantee his $30 million salary for this season.
The move to the Spurs teams Paul, a 12-time NBA All-Star, with one of the game’s future stars in 20-year-old center Victor Wembanyama.
Paul, 39, came off the bench for the first time in his decorated career last season, accepting a reduced role with the Warriors. He averaged 9.2 points and 6.8 assists in 26.4 minutes.
