Chris Paul on the Clippers: "One of the Most Disrespectful Things I've Endured"

Show Notes

Chris Paul opens up about the night his grandfather was murdered — and the 61-point game he played right after that could have broken Michael Jordan's state scoring record.

CP3 sits down with me for a conversation that goes past the highlight reel — the jump ball trick he used for 20 years that referees never called, the night in 2005 he learned his grandfather had been beaten to death, and his next game where he scored 61 points and then deliberately threw the ball out of bounds, just shy of a state record.

Chris talked with me about the Clippers exit he calls "one of the most disrespectful things I've endured," why he turned down a third Olympics to be with his family, the five hand surgeries and 16 screws that came with 21 years in the league, and building his snack brand Good Eat’n the same way he built a Hall of Fame career: one rep at a time.
