The main cores of a few NBA teams hit the free agency market a few days back. One of the most awaited decisions was from Draymond Green. The 33-year-old was linked with several NBA teams. Weeks after giving the Warriors fans a hard time, the 2017 DPOY has now finally put a smile on their face. Green got the 3-year $100 million contract he desired. Thanks to 41-year-old Rich Paul.?

Owning the $120 million Klutch Agency, CEO Rich Paul has an impeccable resume. After tonight, Paul can add two more $100+ million contracts to it. The one that shocked many was the Houston Rockets deal!

Fred VanVleet has decided to leave the Toronto Raptors for a massive 3-year $130 million contract with the Rockets. 7 years and one championship later, VanVleet will now join the rebuilding Rockets. Well, Paul did not stop with this!

The 41-year-old got his flowers for re-signing Jerami Grant with the Portland Trail Blazers. Grant’s 5-year $160 million deal must be the best work of Paul so far. While many believe these contracts are overpaid, 4-time champion James has a different perspective.?

And y’all still wanna question is Rich Paul is the H.I.M.” LeBron tweeted after the deals were announced. Safe to say, Rich Paul is not yet done!
