Just In: The Washington Wizards and Bradley Beal will work together to find a trade for the three-time All-Star if the team elects to reset the roster in the near future, league sources tell me and @JoshuaBRobbins@twitter.com.

They aren't going to get a great return for him. Partially because he's older, partially thanks to the no trade clause. Can't believe Bradley Beal of all people got a full NTC. C'est la vie!

They had to unload him before that contract. Nothing is untradeable but man…

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

agreed, just happy they're finally rebuilding. I'd be happy with just one good young player or a late FRP.

Who wants that contract though, especially for a small shooting guard without elite handles? The new CBA makes his contract close to worst in the league.

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

someone who also has a bad contract they can swap. bad contracts get traded all the time.

Fire up the Beal to Heat rumors

[–] sdlesion@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The Heat FO has been enamored with Beal for as long as I can remember. I can definitely see them trying to make something happen so he ends up there.

[–] StrangeWorrier@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I think Dame would be no. 1 on the wishlist but I don't see Portland trading him unless they get a ridiculous offer. TBH I don't know if Beal for Herro is that good of a swap considering Beal is about to be on the wrong side of 30 and cost $100M more.

Has he been linked there before? I know there's been a lot of smoke with the Heat the past couple of seasons.

[–] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

they just seem like a good fit out of desperation if harden leaves.

[–] sfchin@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

There were rumors that back when Morey was trying to trade Ben Simmons, Embiid was pushing for a Beal trade rather than Harden.

Only a couple years too late but now is still better than later.
