Chris Paul is an American Basketball player who plays for the Golden State Warriors who are part of the Western Conference of the NBA. Paul, also known as "CP3", has been part of the NBA since his early twenties and over the years, he has been a part of some amazing teams in the league.

In this brief article, we will go over his current contract with the Warriors and reflect briefly on his previous contracts throughout his eighteen-year career.

Before becoming a part of the Sun's organization, Chris Paul played for a few other teams. Let’s delve into Chris Paul’s prior contract details.

New Orleans Hornets

Chris Paul was selected as the fourth overall pick in the 2005 NBA draft by the New Orleans Hornets (now the Pelicans). He signed a four-year rookie contract with the Hornets worth around $14.7 million. As per the contract, he earned 3.6 million annually.

Chris Paul averaged 18.7 points, 9.9 assists, and 4.6 rebounds in 425 games for the New Orleans Hornets in his career. He was selected to his first NBA All-Star Game in 2007–08, playing in front of his home fans in New Orleans.

Behind his leadership, the Hornets were near the top of the Western Conference standings all year and even temporarily occupied first place.

In 2018, Chris signed a four-year $160 million deal with the Houston Rockets, earning him nearly $40 million playing for the Rockets organization. During his time there, he was paired with James Harden and was expected to help lead the team to a championship.

However, despite having a strong regular season record, the team struggled in the playoffs and failed to make it past the second round. This resulted in Chris’s split with Houston as he now headed to Oklahoma

Oklahoma City Thunder

After being waived by the Rockets just before the start of the 2019-2020 season, Chris signed a one-year 44 million contract with the Oklahoma City Thunder. He gelled well with the team and made a sudden impact. Unfortunately, as the team was now looking to go ahead without him, he was let go of his deal.

Luckily he signed with the Suns and while he did have three good seasons with the team, the Suns decided to go in another direction and have traded him to the Golden State Warriors.
