NEW YORK — Chris Paul has been re-elected president of the National Basketball Players Association.
Paul’s new four-year term begins immediately. He will be assisted by the union’s newly elected vice-president, Garrett Temple of the Sacramento Kings.
In his first term as president, Paul most notably helped the players and the NBA come together on a new Collective Bargaining Agreement that goes into effect on July 1.
Paul says he’s "humbled that my fellow players have voted to have me continue."
Temple has a three-year term as vice-president, which also begins immediately. He replaces Kyle Korver in that role.
The other members of the NBA’s Executive Committee are First Vice-President LeBron James, Secretary-Treasurer James Jones, and Vice-Presidents Carmelo Anthony, Stephen Curry, Andre Iguodala, Pau Gasol and Anthony Tolliver.
