"The LA Clippers, Brooklyn Nets and Toronto Raptors have agreed on a multi-team trade sending Chris Paul to the Raptors and Ochai Agbaji, a 2032 Raptors second-rounder and cash to the Nets, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania. The Raptors will not require Chris Paul to report to the team and could still discuss moving him before Thursday's 3 p.m. ET NBA trade deadline."
"Toronto is now out of the luxury tax, Brooklyn picks up an asset and cash to cover Agbaji's salary, and the Clippers clear a roster spot and save $7 million in tax money. Paul and the Clippers abruptly agreed to part ways in early December. One of the greatest players in franchise history, Paul posted an Instagram story a little before 3 a.m. ET on December 3 acknowledging the move."
