Chris Paul pulls out of team USA

Team USA has an interesting decision to make after Chris Paul pulls out of the Rio games. Team USA has a poll of 31 players that are eligible for the 2016 games and now that is cut down to 30 players due to Paul's loss. He withdrew his name from consideration on Tuesday. Chris Paul, a two time gold medal winner, says that he wants to use the off season and rest and recuperate instead of attending his third Olympics ,says SL's Lee Jenkins. Chris Paul also stated that he will not be for team USA anymore beyond this summer. Chris Paul was a major contribution to the USA team just like he is for his Los Angeles Clippers, but we all have to respect Paul's decision to rest up for his actual NBA season. Plus, they have the  best players in the world like Stephen Curry, Lebron James, Carmelo Anthony, Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Anthony Davis so I'm sure that team USA will do just fine and get yet another gold medal adding to their list.
