4 NBA Teams Trying To Steal Bradley Beal From Suns
Bradley Beal’s future with the Phoenix Suns remains uncertain as trade rumors circulate. The Suns have several options to address his max contract situation, including trading him, stretching his contract, or pursuing a buyout.
If Phoenix chooses the buyout route, four NBA teams have emerged as potential suitors for Beal. The Miami Heat, Denver Nuggets, San Antonio Spurs, and Golden State Warriors would likely pursue signing him.
“I spoke with somebody in the NBA last night and I said let’s talk about where he’s gonna go. He said ‘Miami, Denver, Golden State, possibly San Antonio.’ This is somebody that’s in the know and that’s what he said to me,” said John Gambadoro on the Burns & Gambo Show.
“Miami and Denver are two teams that he could go to if there was ever a buyout. Keep your eye out on Golden State and maybe the Spurs depending on the next coach.”
The Los Angeles Lakers have also been linked to Beal.
These teams see value in adding the veteran scorer despite his recent struggles with the Suns. Beal’s partnership with Devin Booker hasn’t yielded the expected results, prompting Phoenix to explore alternatives.
Any potential deal is complicated by Beal’s no-trade clause, giving him significant control over his destination. This leverage makes a buyout scenario more plausible if the Suns decide to move in a different direction.
