Chris Paul is returning to Los Angeles, the team announced Monday. The 40-year-old guard and 12-time All-Star has reportedly agreed to a one-year, $3.6 million deal with the LA Clippers. Paul previously played with LA for six seasons from 2011-17, leading them to the playoffs each year.

He'll be wearing No. 3 again in his return to the team after new teammate Bradley Beal agrees to give up that jersey number.

The veteran point guard wants to win and be close to his family in LA, and the team is in need of a ball handler, even though it will be mostly as a reserve.
