James Harden played a central role in recruiting Bradley Beal to the Los Angeles Clippers, sources told Shams Charania of ESPN.

"I'm told James Harden was a focal point in recruiting Bradley Beal internally but also speaking directly to Beal and his camp," said Charania. "The Clippers really view Bradley Beal as a perfect fit alongside Kawhi Leonard and James Harden."

Beal signed a two-year, $11 million deal with the Clippers, which includes a player option for the second year.

Beal averaged 17.0 points, 3.3 rebounds and 3.7 assists in 53 games last year. 

Beal gave up almost $14 million to buy out his contract from the Suns, added Charania.

Well, the CP3 for Westbrook was a tragic mistake... but those were still some very good teams.

These OGs need to stop recruiting other OGs. They are not gms

I know because I'm a Rockets fan. I'm talking about how each of those 3 players wanted out because they didn't want to play with him anymore, after 2 seasons of not getting the ball.
