A ge catches up to us all, and never has that felt more prevalent in the NBA than watching Chris Paul get the most pathetic introductory announcements in basketball. While DeMar DeRozan was being introduced to a heroes welcome in Sacramento, CP3 got this.

After being waived by the Golden State Warriors, Chris Paul is teaming up with Victor Wembanyama and the young Spurs in San Antonio.

The Summer Spurs (0-2) lost to the Sacramento Kings (2-0), 59-85, at the Sacramento California Classic. Spurs rookie forward Harrison Ingram and Tyson Ward poured in 11 points each to lead the team. James Bouyea finished with 10 points, six rebounds, and four assists. Guard Stephon Castle did not play.

After the Golden State Warriors waived Paul on June 30, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported the 19-year NBA veteran had agreed to a 1-year deal with the Spurs worth more than $11 million. The Spurs didn't release the terms of the contract.

Chris Paul shocked the NBA world when he decided to join the San Antonio Spurs instead of going back home to Los Angeles during free agency. It was a decision that had everyone talking, including former NBA stars.

From being a longtime thorn in Gregg Popovich's side to his remarkable resume, here are five things to know about new Spurs point guard Chris Paul.

With the addition of Paul, it's likely that the Spurs will look to trade Devonte Graham or end up waiving his contract before his new guarantee-date. Even though the Spurs will likely not be big players for the rest of the free agency, the squad will probably make one or two big signings in free agency.

Pairing Paul with 20-year-old sensation Victor Wembanyama is a savvy move by the organization, one that will ideally accelerate the center's path to superstardom and enable the squad to come of age. Not too long ago, “The Spurs Way” was the envy of executives all across the league, and this free agency signing might just remind people why.

The Spurs have agreed to a one-year, $11 million contract with Paul to be their point guard, a story broken by Chris Haynes of Bleacher Report and TNT. He said CP3 had a long conversation with Gregg Popovich that convinced him to come to Texas.
