Bradley Beal Hasn't Talked About Waiving No-Trade To Leave Suns

[RealGM Wiretap]

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal has been in trade rumors over the last few weeks. Beal's no-trade clause complicates any deal that Phoenix could put him in. In fact, Beal's agent Mark Bartelstein said that he and the veteran guard have had no discussions about waiving his no-trade clause.

"There have been no discussions about trades with the Suns or any other team," Bartelstein said. "Bradley's total focus is on helping the Suns turn things around."

Beal was recently moved to the bench by Phoenix coach Mike Budenholzer. When asked if he'd consider waiving his no-trade clause in the wake of the move, Beal said "I hold the cards" regarding a potential trade.

Beal is making $50.2 million this season. The 12-year veteran is then owed $110.8 million through 2026-27, with the final season being a player option.

Has there been any indication of the teams Beal would agree to be traded to? His salary, injury history, and now low(er) productivity make him a hard enough sell. A narrow trade window only compounds matters.

most of the NBA pods are citing 3 way deal bc Riley doesn't want Beal

Miami-BKN-PHX

(Idk why Sean Marks would want to try and expensive old veteran "yet again" though)

BRK wants to lose. I don't see it happening, even if all the draft capital from MIA and PHX went to BRK with Beal.

Also, the headline states, "Bradley Beal Hasn't Talked About Waiving No-Trade To Leave Suns." So no, Beal has not indicated where he would be willing to be traded to. When he does make a list, you can be certain that BRK won't be on it.

Not exactly how it went down. I also don't hear any crying; PHX seems to be tacking it in stride.

How is GSW not jumping all over this? I don't see how Kuminga and draft picks doesn't get this done. GSW retools and gets the missing shooter/backcourt companion they lost with Klay. Would not be one bit surprised IF the team he is traded to is GSW.

Jimmy makes $40m more than Kuminga and GSW are in the 2nd apron. Where's the matching salary?

PHX didn't give him anything

The NTC was inked in Washington, they just inherited it
