Chris Paul, 40, returned to the Los Angeles Clippers in July and signed a one-year contract. In a recent interview, Chris Paul said that returning to the Los Angeles Clippers made him feel unreal and unbelievable, and he hoped to accomplish some goals that had not been achieved before with this team.

In the 2024/25 NBA regular season, Chris Paul, who played for the San Antonio Spurs, played 82 games for the team, averaging 8.8 points per game, 42.7% shooting percentage and 37.7% three-point shooting percentage.

It is worth mentioning that Chris Paul played for the Los Angeles Clippers from 2011 to 2017.

Chris Paul shared in the interview, "It feels crazy and incredible, and I still can't describe it now. This is something I have been hoping to happen for a long time, and I have always hoped to make it a reality through words, but I never knew if it would really happen."

In addition, Chris Paul also said that he took the initiative to contact Los Angeles Clippers owner Steve Ballmer last year and asked to visit the newly built arena. Chris Paul said, "At that time, I just wanted to take a sneak peek because I didn't know if there were any Clippers players there, and I didn't want to be misunderstood as someone sneaking around the arena. But now walking in this arena again, the mood is completely different."

"I love playing basketball and I love the sport, but my family is more important than anything else. My wife and kids are starting to get fed up with me, and ever since I got the news, I've been yelling at everyone at home that I'm back, I'm really back."

Chris Paul also said, "After those two years and what we achieved, it's really incredible to have the opportunity to come back here now. We all know in our hearts that the story at that time has not come to an end. Now we finally have the opportunity to see if we can complete those unfinished things here."

"I've always wanted to come back, no matter what it takes. I don't care what the roster is like, I just want to go home, just want to go back to the Los Angeles Clippers."
