    Surprising. Dude can obviously still play, but good for him.

    Had some flashes in New Orleans and Sacto but will be remembered most for his domestic violence issue

    I hope that he has addressed and continues to address his domestic violence issues. He had a really solid career.

    His faith is his business.

    Too many variations of Christianity....

    Always remember him as Chris Paul's Backup.

    Silly. Should have racked up another 20 million for his grand-kids. He could have helped wayyyyyy more people with 20 million in donations too.

    A bit strange.

    You can still be a Jehovah's Witness and contribute to your faith at 31 or at 40. It's not like you need to choose between one or the other, at this point in time.

    Maybe he just lost his love of playing the game.

    Definitely walking away from 20-30 million dollars. It's possible he could have earned even more in his career. That's wild.

    Nothing in that article explains why he turned down an extra $10 million. Strange decision

    No. They give roles for every Jehovah's witness. Like they have to convert a certain number of people every week. It's a full time job
