Chris Paul<\/a>said he’s “at peace with everything” following his stunning removal from theLA Clippers<\/a> roster earlier this month.<\/p>\n

The Clippers cut ties with one of the greatest players in franchise history following a three-hour, late-night conversation between Paul and top basketball executive Lawrence Frank. Paul and his leadership style reportedly clashed with head coach Ty Lue and the team believed he had become disruptive.<\/p>\n

“Stuff’s been a little crazy in the past few days — to say the least,” Paultold People.com in an interview<\/a> published Tuesday. “But honestly, I’m home. My daughter had tryouts yesterday. My nephew had a basketball game. My son has a game coming up on the 12th.”<\/p>\n

The Clippers and Paul, who said he is retiring after this season, are currently in a holding pattern as he’s not eligible to be traded until Dec. 15 at the earliest. Paul said he’s excited about whatever comes next.<\/p>\n

“I’m actually at peace with everything,” he told People.com. “More than anything, I’m excited about being around and getting a chance to play a small role in whatever anything looks like next.”<\/p>\n

Paul had rejoined the Clippers in late July on a one-year deal. He averaged a career-low 2.9 points and 3.3 assists in 16 games for the Clippers this season.<\/p>\n
