Chill out with all the Draymond Green and LeBron James talk … ’cause new Warriors point guard Chris Paul tells TMZ Sports he “absolutely” wants the 4-time NBA champ back on the team!
We caught up with CP3 at Fanatics’ “Merch Madness” giveaway event on Tuesday … just a few days after the 38-year-old guard was traded to Golden State in exchange for Jordan Poole.
“I’m excited,” Paul said. “I know I’ve been the sworn enemy for a long time but I cannot wait to be there, and I cannot wait to get in the locker room with all those guys.”
Of course, there’s a chance one of those guys might be missing. Draymond Green isn’t a lock to return after declining a $27.5 million player option, making him a free agent.
Even though he’s only been on the team for a few days, CP3 says he “absolutely” wants Green back.
It won’t be easy, though … a lot of teams are reportedly interested in Draymond, including the Portland Trailblazers, Detroit Pistons, Sacramento Kings and LA Lakers.
King James and DG were recently spotted on vacay together in Europe … and chances are Bron was doing some recruiting!
Regardless, CP3 told us he’s looking forward to building chemistry with the Warriors and even has a message for his new fans!
