On May 22, Beijing time, according to Eric Pincus, a reporter from the bleachers of American media, Paul, a 39 year old veteran, is likely to be traded or fired by the Warriors this offseason, and once he is fired, he is likely to join the Lakers with good brother James.
According to Eric Pincus of American Records: "If I don't mention the possibility of Paul, it's too careless. He may be traded or fired by the Warriors. He and James are very close. It's a possibility for the Lakers to sign Paul. It's very meaningful for me. Will Paul get the base salary? I don't know.I don't want to say that he is cheap for the Lakers, but I can foresee such a joint effort without a better offer. "
Paul still has one year of contract with the Warriors, that is, a contract worth 30 million dollars in the 2024-25 season, which is a non guarantee contract.
Although Paul has the veteran leadership ability and can also become the sixth person of the team, it is obvious that after the Warriors failed to qualify for the playoffs last season, the Warriors face the choice of reconstruction, and Paul is no longer in their future territory.
Paul is highly likely to be traded or fired, thus helping the Warriors save salary space.Even if Paul is traded, he is likely to be cut off by the next team, which will free up salary space. In this case, the possibility of Paul joining the Lakers and teaming up with James is still not small, which will impact the championship together.
