Bradley Beal is having a disappointing second season with the Phoenix Suns. After being traded from the Washington Wizards, Beal was expected to elevate his game to help the Suns’ cause. Unfortunately, after playing for two seasons, Beal has mustered an average of 18.1 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 4.4 assists per game. Now, despite such a sorry showing, the Suns are having difficulty trading off the athlete.
This is due to the no-trade clause in Beal’s contract. However, according to an insider, the 31-year-old might himself agree to waive his no-trade clause. John Gambadoro, in a recent update, stated that there are three teams for whom Beal might agree to get traded. The teams are the Los Angeles Lakers, Miami Heat, and Denver Nuggets.
As for Beal the no-trade looms large. He could have went to Milwaukee before he ended up in Phoenix but that was turned down. Have heard he would waive no trade for LA, Miami, Denver but I do believe there are a few others that he could ultimately decide work for him.

Gambadoro stated that given his recent form, the Suns would not be eager to start with him. Meanwhile, as the trade rumors looms large, Bradley Beal does not seem to be too happy with how the Suns have been performing lately.
