Pierce spotted alone

A fan spotted Paul Pierce walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of July 25, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Paul back on the market?

A rep for Paul Pierce was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the basketball player was splitting hit the internet Sunday (July 26), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Paul’s phone number?”
