Bradley Beal has spent the past four seasons on Wizards teams that haven’t made the playoffs leading many to question if he will leave the team. On Tuesday, Michael Scotto of HoopsHype reported that Beal is expected to decline his $36.4 million player option.
Wait huh? Lol
The possibility of Beal leaving the Wizards has been a critical storyline for some time now, even after he signed his two-year extension in 2019.
Beal has spent his entire 10-year career with Washington, holding career averages of 22.1 points, and spent two of the last three seasons averaging at least 30 points per game. He’s played most of his career with John Wall at point guard, then transitioned to Russell Westbrook before the team traded for Kristaps Porzingis at the deadline next to Beal as his new co-star.
If Beal elects to leave the nation’s capital, the Wizards are more than likely to set up a sign-and-trade so that they retain some value for Beal leaving.
