*He may just be opting out so that he can make more money while remaining with Washington next season.

The Wizards would be so dumb to give Beal a super max.
Just let him leave and then tank for a couple of years.
It beats being a treadmill team.

What kind of poll doesn't have Philadelphia when the rumor after the Harden trade was that the Sixers were going to try and get him as well?

Not saying this isn't true--I wouldn't be at all surprised if it were--but this is the only source I could find about it online, and no one else has corroborated it. Plus the only citation here is 'a league source told HoopsHype,' which is pretty thin coming from Michael Scotto.

Wizards will probably get something for him since no one has the money to sign him outright. My guess is still Miami.

Theyre better off giving him the supermax and then trading him asap rather than just letting him walk.

With so few teams with money, this sets up the Wiz to help him out with a S&T which gets them something back. Salary wouldn't have to match, so there is some flexibility here them, and for teams to come up with decent offers.
Glad he's leaving... that team was treadmill city and staying would have guaranteed they stayed there.

I think he just did this so he can get a supermax contract from the wizards.

He's going to re-sign but maybe a team can work a sign-and-trade here.

This one of those situations where he gets more money if he opts out and resigns?
