The Wizards are trading star shooting guard Bradley Beal to the Suns, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. Beal will waive his no-trade clause to team up with Kevin Durant and Devin Booker in Phoenix.
The Suns are reportedly sending Chris Paul, Landry Shamet, a handful of second-round picks, and multiple pick swaps back to Washington for Beal. It could take several days for the full framework of the deal to be completed, per ESPN.
The reason for the delay is because the Wizards are planning to field offers from third teams on a trade for Chris Paul. The Clippers are one of the teams expected to pursue the future Hall of Famer in a deal, per Bleacher Report’s Chris Haynes.
