Bradley Beal's time with the Phoenix Suns came to an abrupt but foreseeable end on Wednesday as the franchise agreed to buy out the remainder of Beal's supermax contract. The decision made Beal an unrestricted free agent, but the former All-Star guard wasted no time in agreeing to sign with a new team.

Alongside the news that his contract was bought out Shams Charania of ESPN reported Beal would be signing with the Los Angeles Clippers, inking a two-year deal worth $11 million. He joins James Harden and Kawhi Leonard after the pair helped lead L.A. to a 50-win season and a playoff berth last year.
