The Spurs are reportedly interested in pursuing Chris Paul as a potential backup point guard, but the Warriors are unlikely to sign him back for next season due to their financial situation. While Paul’s performance has been excellent and helped improve the team’s non-Curry minutes, it is unclear if the Warriors want to pay him what other teams might offer him for a backup role.
If he becomes available, San Antonio could be a good fit for Paul as they look for a veteran player to pair with Victor Wembanyama next season. Reports suggest that Paul could provide leadership and guidance to their young core, making him an attractive option for the Spurs.
However, it is worth noting that the Spurs have also been linked to other point guards like Trae Young in trade rumors. While this may not be likely, sources indicate that San Antonio may be more interested in pursuing players like Dejounte Murray from the Hawks, who could be a better fit alongside Wembanyama in the future.
