The Golden State Warriors are waiving veteran guard Chris Paul after failing to find a trade for his $30 million salary, per TNT’s Chris Haynes, making him an unrestricted free agent.

Expectedly, Paul had been at the center of trade rumors during the 2023-24 season. Spotrac noted that his $30 million contract for 2024-25 would be fully guaranteed if he stayed on the Warriors’ roster past June 28.

ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski earlier reported that both Paul and the Warriors agreed to move the guarantee date from June 28 to June 30, providing Golden State extra time to consider potential trade scenarios.

The announcement followed reports that the Warriors are actively shopping both Wiggins and Paul in trade discussions, indicating a potential exit for Paul from Golden State as they work to overhaul their roster.
