Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul is many things. He’s an NBA All-Star and new teammate of Kevin Durant, but he’s also an investor, author, commercial pitchman and dad.
Paul, 37, recently published a children’s book titled “Basketball Dreams” that he says is somewhat of a “love letter” to his late grandfather. Paul: No, no, it’s cool. But it’s something that I don’t think about much to tell you truth because I’m still just so in it. One thing I do know, is that when I do retire, I’m still going to be involved in business. I have production company, I have all these different things going on. I think the thing I look most forward to is actually being a dad. I think my wife does an amazing job right now. She takes the kids here, there, to every event.
MarketWatch: Speaking of LeBron, what did you think of him breaking the scoring record? Is this record ever going to be broken again? “‘You have to realize that you’re not just investing in the idea, but investing in that person. If that person isn’t driven and focused, then your investment is going to go to shit.’”
