Report: Suns Finalizing Deal to Acquire Chris Paul

The Suns are finalizing a deal to acquire Thunder All-Star guard Chris Paul, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

According to The Athletic's Shams Charania, the Thunder are sending Ricky Rubio, Ty Jerome, Jalen Lecque and a 2022 first-round to Oklahoma City in exchange for Paul. ESPN reports Phoenix will also receive Abdel Nader in the deal.

Paul, 35, averaged 17.6 points, 6.7 assists and 5.0 rebounds during the 2019-20 season. His efforts helped the Thunder to secure the No. 5 seed in the Western Conference and helped the veteran guard earn his 10th All-Star selection and a second team All-NBA selection.
