Chris Paul: Clippers players might walk out
With the future of the Los Angeles Clippers' ownership tied up in court, guard Chris Paul said Thursday that the team's players might boycott the start of the upcoming season if Donald Sterling still owns the club.
Paul told ESPN.com he discussed a potential walkout with coach Doc Rivers.
"Something has to happen, and something needs to happen soon -- sooner rather than later," Paul told the website after coaching his AAU team in Las Vegas. "We're all going to talk about it. We're all definitely going to talk about it. Doc, (forward) Blake (Griffin), DJ (center DeAndre Jordan). It's unacceptable."
Rivers' future with the team also is tied to the court case. The team's interim chief executive officer, Richard Parsons, said Tuesday in a Los Angeles probate court that Rivers would not return for the upcoming season if Donald Sterling still owned the club.
