He’s from St. Louis, was the nation’s top prep player, drew comparisons to Ray Allen and became a 3X #NBA All-Star, but Bradley Beal is also a husband and family man who speaks his mind.

Pacers, Suns, and Wizards trade is official. Here is the Suns release. Bradley Beal is the headliner, of course. Pacers send out pick 7 and get pick 8 (Jarace Walker) as well as a 2028 second from the Suns and a 2029 second from the Wizards. pic.twitter.com/IKN834IH3w – 2:18 PM

Given value these guys went for, do you think Sixers could have gotten in on any of these deals?
-Beal for expiring, 2nd rounders and swaps that may never swap
– Poole + 1st and 2nd for cp3 exp.
– Porzingis- pick 35, Tyus Jones and filler
Should they have tried on any? – 2:07 PM

The Wizards officially announced Bradley Beal’s supermax contract July 6 last year after moratorium so I believe it will be another almost 2 weeks until the Suns and Warriors trades become official. – 9:17 AM

More on this storyline
A source said the Suns want Harris to play alongside Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal. And they want to acquire him before the start of free agency on June 30 because of possible second apron ramifications. The only thing is Phoenix would have to move Deandre Ayton. The Sixers have no interest in the 7-foot, 250-pounder with three years and $102 million left on his contract. -via The Philadelphia Inquirer / June 24, 2023
The Phoenix Suns have acquired guards Bradley Beal and Jordan Goodwin, and forward Isaiah Todd from the Washington Wizards in a three-team deal also involving the Indiana Pacers with the Suns sending Chris Paul, Landry Shamet, five future second-round picks, four future pick swaps and cash considerations to Washington and one future second-round pick to Indiana. Washington also sent a future second-round pick to Indiana as the Wizards and Pacers swapped draft rights to their lottery picks in Thursday’s 2023 NBA Draft. “We are thrilled to welcome Bradley, Jordan and Isaiah to the Phoenix Suns as we continue to build one of the premier organizations in all of sports,” Suns Owner Mat Ishbia said. “Bradley Beal is one of the best players in the NBA and brings so much to our team including incredible work ethic, great character, and the mindset of a champion. Jordan and Isaiah add talent and versatility to our roster that will continue to make this team among the league’s best. We are committed to bringing an NBA championship to Phoenix and I could not be more excited about how this organization is coming together heading into the upcoming season.” -via NBA.com / June 24, 2023
A three-time NBA All-Star, Beal has twice averaged over 30 points in a season and is one of just nine players in the league to post at least 27 points per game over the last five combined seasons. Beal earned All-NBA Third Team honors in 2020-21 after averaging a career-best 31.3 points and becoming just the 12th different player in NBA history to record consecutive seasons with 30-plus points per game. This past season, Beal shot a career-high 50.6% from the field in averaging 23.2 points over 50 games. “I want to thank Chris and Landry for all of their contributions to the team’s success in recent years,” Ishbia added. “Chris is an all-time great and brought incredible passion and leadership to our organization during his time with the Suns.” -via NBA.com / June 24, 2023
