Paul will enter the 17th season of his career later this year as an 11-time All-Star, 10-time All-NBA selection and 9-time All-Defensive selection.
Paul is still chasing his first NBA Championship after taking an inexperienced young Suns team into the finals this past season. The Suns fell to the Bucks 4-2 after leading the Finals series 2-0.
Guard Cameron Payne has also agreed to stay with the Suns as well, on a multi-year contract, according to the organization.
