The question “what happened to CP3” is most likely about Chris Paul, the NBA point guard whose nickname is CP3. Recently, he was released by the Los Angeles Clippers in early December 2025, shortly after announcing that this 2025–26 season would be his final year in the league before retiring.
Recent events
- In November 2025, Chris Paul publicly announced that he plans to retire at the end of the current NBA season, framing this year as his farewell tour after a 21‑year career.
- On December 3, 2025, the Clippers abruptly parted ways with him in a late‑night move while the team was on the road, sending him home and confirming that he would no longer be with the team.
What this means now
- Paul is currently a free agent nearing the end of his career, and his own prior statement suggests he still intends for this to be his final NBA season, whether or not another team signs him for a short stint.
- The move has sparked debate because many fans and analysts felt a legendary veteran like Paul deserved a more respectful, orderly ending with the Clippers instead of an abrupt, middle‑of‑the‑night release.
If you meant “CP3” as something else (like the DHS Center for Prevention Programs and Partnerships, which also uses the CP3 acronym), that office recently had its staff heavily cut and saw its director resign during Trump’s second term, with a very young junior staffer appointed to lead it.
