NBA: Predicting where the top 20 2021 free agents will sign
2. Chris Paul
Chris Paul has been doubted at every turn of his NBA career, yet he’s been a ceiling-changer for nearly every team that he’s ever played for. And that wasn’t any different this past season with the Phoenix Suns.
Paul and Devin Booker combined to create one of the best backcourts in the league and it nearly cashed them an NBA title. Phoenix has some big decisions to make, but the one for Paul should be a simple one.
The one team that I probably would’ve bet on stealing him from the Suns was the Los Angeles Lakers. However, after they acquired Russell Westbrook at the NBA Draft, that ship has all but sailed. Paul will be back in Phoenix, hoping to get another shot at winning that elusive first NBA title.
Prediction: Phoenix Suns
