Chris Paul boarded an airplane as a Phoenix Sun and left it a Washington Wizard.
Paul was flying to New York for a GMA interview when he found out he’d been traded for Bradley Beal.
Paul was on the show to promote his new book Sixty-One, but ended up talking about the trade: “In this league anything can happen, so you just try to find out what’s next.”
Paul could be on the move again very soon – the Wizards are reportedly looking to trade Paul or waive him, making him a free agent.
Chris Paul said he was on a flight when he found out about the reports that he was included in the Bradley Beal trade.
"I was suprised too. … In this league anything can happen.”
