Veteran point guard Chris Paul has not been having the time of his life lately. The future Hall of Famer completed yet another season ringless when his side fell against Denver in the Semi-Finals. Besides, the Phoenix Suns, as one of its key changes, are reportedly on the lookout to waive the 38-year-old, making him a free agent this offseason. While uncertainties loom over the 12x-NBA All-Star, he recently shed light on a bitter experience his daughter had at school.

As an NBA player, Chris Paul perhaps is habitual to criticism, trash-talk and scrutinizing. Unfortunately, just because his daughter comes from an NBA icon’s household, she is ridiculed. Fans, however, have mocked CP3 even after hearing about his daughter’s struggles.
