Sloane Knows

Chris Paul Gets Better With Age


Listen Later

On this episode, Sloane interviews NBA legend and the newest member of the Golden State Warriors, Chris "CP3" Paul! Sloane and CP3 talk about Paul's Club 61 leadership program, where he brings kids from different cities to LA for three days of activities, community service, and conversations. Paul shares his experiences as a 14-year-old in high school, trying to find himself as a basketball player and dealing with being vertically challenged compared to other players. They also talk about Paul's childhood dreams of playing in the NBA and NFL, his love for football, and his admiration for Michael Jordan and Allen Iverson. Sloane also does a round of "Takes Hotter Than Kelly Oubre Jr" and finds out she knows more about Chris than he knows about himself.
