Chris Paul is returning to Los Angeles, the team announced Monday. The 40-year-old guard and 12-time All-Star has reportedly agreed to a one-year, $3.6 million deal with the LA Clippers. Paul previously played with LA for six seasons from 2011-17, leading them to the playoffs each year.

The veteran point guard wants to win and be close to his family in LA, and the team is in need of a ball handler, even though it will be mostly as a reserve.

When Chris Paul returns to the LA Clippers, he'll keep the only number he has ever worn in his two decades in the NBA, thanks to guard Bradley Beal, who will give up his No. 3 jersey to Paul.
