Chris Paul Rumored to Prefer Playing in NYC or LA

Chris Paul may be on the move again. Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Chris Paul reportedly prefers to play in Los Angeles or New York next season.

Paul, who has been the subject of trade rumors, is still under contract with the Thunder.However, with Oklahoma City in a rebuild, trading Paul and his massive contract could help the Thunder get more assets.

“I’ve been told by a league source that Chris Paul prefers his next basketball home to be either in L.A. or N.Y. (Los Angeles is where he resides full time) and that has created some modicum of leverage in the ongoing negotiations between the sides,” Knicks Film School’s Jonathan Macri wrote in his newsletter. “I’m also told that there is a deal on the table that is comfortable from Sam Presti’s perspective, and the ball is in Leon Rose’s court.”
