Phoenix Suns engage in serious trade talks to acquire Bradley Beal.
Bradley Beal and the Washington Wizards’ front-office last week decided to work together for finding the superstar a new home in the league. And, now in just a matter of few days, the Washington Wizards are in serious trade talks with two finalists: Phoenix Suns and Miami Heat. The league would be in great trouble if Bradley Beal gets shipped to the Phoenix Suns.
According to NBA Insider, Shams Charania the Phoenix Suns are the frontrunners for acquiring Bradley Beal to pair him alongside Kevin Durant and Devin Booker. In a tweet he reported: “Developing: Washington is in serious talks with two finalists – Miami and Phoenix – on a Bradley Beal trade, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. The Suns have emerged as a serious threat for Beal, who holds a no-trade clause.”
The Phoenix Suns’ front office under the new ownership is really trying its best to improve the roster and land some championships. After, bringing Kevin Durant to the system and making the required adjustments with the coaching staff, and waiving Chris Paul. They have been eyeing a third star to complete their Big 3. The rumors have linked them with many talented Free Agents so far.
But with Bradley Beal being available and them engaging in serious talks to acquire the superstar. The scary hours for the league can start and Kevin Durant may repeat his dominating run with the Phoenix Suns just like he did with the Golden State Warriors. The trio of Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal, and Devin Booker would be impossible to stop on the offensive end. And, it won’t be easy for anyone to get rid of them in a BO7 series.

Bradley Beal has been limited for the past two seasons due to injuries. But none of that has taken away any of his talent. And, he can easily average 27-30 points per game throughout the regular season once he’s healed. And, now he’s ready to roll and the Phoenix Suns are one of the best spots for him to continue with his career after spending a decade with the Washington Wizards.
Bradley Beal contract: Can Suns afford superstar guard?
Bradley Beal
Beal signed a supermax contract with the Washington Wizards last year for 5 years worth $251.02 million. His average salary is $50,203,930 and next season he’ll be making around $47 million. He is also the only player in the league to have a no-trade clause in the contract. But the chances of him denying the trade which ships him to the Phoenix Suns are less.
Still, it’s not an easy road for the Phoenix Suns to acquire Bradley Beal. As to do so they’ll have to honor his contract. And, exchange the pieces worth the same.
The Phoenix Suns will have to giveaway Chris Paul and DeAndre Ayton for sure. And, both the teams then may have to add some more pieces so the cap space can be eligible for both sides. The Suns would be a lock for the championship if they are able to pull this trade.
