Chris Paul looks set to close out his NBA career as a member of the Los Angeles Clippers, a team he spent six seasons with, but his return is not just sentimental.

Paul, 40, will try once again to bring the Clippers their first title. The star guard has been a journeyman, playing for the Houston Rockets, Oklahoma City Thunder, Phoenix Suns, Golden State Warriors, and San Antonio Spurs, where he spent last season.
