Former All-Star forward Blake Griffin believes veteran point guard Chris Paul would be an ideal addition to the New York Knicks, voicing his support as a pivotal trade window nears.
Griffin, who spent the 2023-24 season with the Boston Celtics, said Paul’s playmaking and leadership would mesh well with New York’s roster. The comment comes with a key NBA trade date on the horizon, intensifying speculation about possible mid-season moves.
Paul, a 12-time All-Star currently in his 19th NBA campaign, has been linked to several teams since the offseason. Griffin’s endorsement adds another notable voice to the conversation surrounding the Knicks’ potential interest.
No formal negotiations between the Knicks and Paul’s club have been reported, but league executives are preparing for an active market once the trade window officially opens.
