Chris Paul Says He May Retire In 'A Year Or Two'

The San Antonio Spurs arranged for two legendary point guards to do a sit-down interview together. Former Spurs point guard Tony Parker interviewed current Spurs point guard Chris Paul. The two talked about a lot of subjects, including how much longer Paul plans to continue playing.
"Maybe a year or two. I'm still trying to feel it out," Paul said. "I think the hardest part is-like I love this, like practice today, I love hooping, I love all of that. The hardest part is when I get home and I have to watch my kids' games on the iPad or whatnot, so that's the tug of war right now."
Paul has started all 24 of San Antonio's games so far this season. In his 20th NBA season, Paul is averaging 10.2 points, 8.5 assists and 1.4 steals per game. The chance to play is why the veteran point guard joined the Spurs this past offseason.
"Last year (with the Golden State Warriors) was probably one of the toughest years for me. I just love to hoop. I wanna play. If I'm gonna sacrifice my family and be away from them, then I at least need to be playing," Paul said.
