Phoenix Suns star Chris Paul has once again cleared the air by emphasizing his dedication to helping the Suns capture the Larry O'Brien Trophy in the 2023 NBA Playoffs. Last April, his comment about being at peace even without a championship had caused questions about his winning mentality. However, CP3 has confirmed that the discussion doesn't affect his game anymore, and it doesn't imply that he's given up on winning an NBA championship. According to an interview by Gerald Bourguet of PHNX Sports, Paul said, "Yeah, that ain't what I think about going into the playoffs. That was that conversation, but for me, I'm gonna compete." Nevertheless, this statement may explain The Athletic's recent report, which revealed that the majority of surveyed players in the NBA would prefer to see Chris Paul and Damian Lillard win their first NBA championship rings. Paul said he appreciated it, adding that no one wanted to lift that trophy more than him. Paul and the Suns will face off against the Clippers, one of his former teams, in Game 1 on Sunday.
