June 20th According to reporter Eric Pincus in the open stands, he believes the Mavericks will sign free agent Chris Paul.

EricPincusx wrote: "Paul is 40 years old, but he is still an efficient leader in the Spurs - the Spurs were still fighting for a playoff spot before Vinbanyama was reimbursed for a season due to deep vein thrombosis. The Spurs may want Paul to return because of his ability, but given Fox, Rookie of the Year Castle and defender Dylan Harper (the Spurs are expected to pick Harper with the second pick), the veteran may choose a team that will give him more opportunities to play. Despite his deep connection with Los Angeles (Lakes and Clippers) and his family lives there (don't rule out this possibility), he might go to a team with an injury to the starting point guard. I predict that the Dallas Mavericks need a substitute point guard until Irving recovers, and they may sign Paul with a mini-middle special ($5.7 million). "

In the 2024-25 season, Paul played 82 games, averaging 8.8 points, 3.6 rebounds, 7.4 assists and 1.3 steals per game.
