#3 Chris Paul names LeBron James as a role model as he attempts to extend his career

Chris Paul turned 34 earlier this year, although the former All-Star still has three year's remaining on his huge four-year $160 million contract. Nevertheless, during an interview for ESPN's Body Issue, CP3 revealed that he is trying hard to remain in peak physical condition, and named LeBron James as a role model when it comes to taking care of his body:

Steve Nash took really good care of his body. Bron takes really good care of his body. The biggest thing all those guys have in common is discipline. I’m 34. I’m going to be chasing around a bunch of 19- and 20-year-olds. There’s no excuse. If you get a routine and you stick to it, the sky’s the limit.

Paul was traded to the Oklahoma City Thunder earlier this summer after spending the past two seasons with the Houston Rockets. During the 18-19 season, the point guard averaged 15.6 points and 8.2 assists, while James is still widely considered as the NBA's best player as he embarks on his 18th season in the league.
