Sarver
Our league definitely got this wrong,” wrote LeBron James today just hours after NBA Commissioner Adam Silver went before the media to try and contain the fallout over what many consider too-mild sanctions on Phoenix Suns owner Robert Sarver for his reported sexist, racist and abusive behavior toward subordinates.
James, like many former players and pundits, feels that “there is no place for misogyny, sexism, and racism in any work place. Don’t matter if you own the team or play for the team.”
Possibly even more crucial, Suns all-star point guard, locker room leader and former president of the NBA Players’ Association.
Wingspan
Chris Paul is one of the best point guards to ever pick up a basketball. He’s shifty, versatile, incredibly quick, and has led many, many teams to the playoffs. However, he also happens to be only six feet tall. That makes him quite short compared to the rest of the league.
While Chris Paul’s height would have been right around the NBA average a decade or two ago, everyone else grew around him. Currently, point guards stand roughly 6’3. That’s a good amount taller than Paul, especially when considering aspects like weight and size.
Contract
2022-23 = $28.4 million fully guaranteed
2023-24 = $30.8 million with $15.8 million guaranteed
2024-25 = $30.0 million (none guaranteed)
The Suns would only be on the hook for about half of Paul’s $30.8 million hit should they cut him before the beginning of the 2023-24 season, as his deal would become fully guaranteed on 6/28/2023.
Net Worth
As of 2022, according to Celebrity Net Worth, Chris Paul’s net worth is estimated to be around $160 million.
His salary is estimated to be around $30 million. As of the 2020-2021 season, Chris Paul’s salary was estimated to be around $41 million and for the 2021-2022 season is estimated to be around $44 million. Chris Paul began the 2020-2021 season with three years and $125 million remaining on his contract. His on the court earnings and off the court earnings total to about $39.1 million, according to Forbes.
