Bradley Beal has made it clear he "holds the cards" to his future because of his no-trade clause in his contract with the Phoenix Suns. However, the Suns have reportedly started making calls about potentially trading Beal, although they haven't spoken to him about it yet, The Athletic's Fred Katz reported.
Trade rumors really started up after Beal was benched from the starting lineup earlier this month. On top of that, the Suns have shown interest in trading for Jimmy Butler with the Miami Heat and Butler has returned the interest, meaning a player like Beal could be involved in a trade there. But, it's important to note how Beal has to approve any trade that involves him, so there would need to be discussions between him and the Suns if any trade moves forward.
