Marc Stein:

A return to the Clippers, league sources say, has not been ruled out for Bradley Beal, who has also drawn interest from Miami. The 33-year-old played in only six games last season for the Clippers last season before needing season-ending surgery to repair a fracture in his left hip.

He must know he’s cooked and will just be a bench corner shooter, right? That doesn’t sound that bad.

Players who used to be the no.1 on a team rarely suck it up and become a bench player. He wants playing time on any team he has to realise that those days are over.

He’d have a decent role in Miami if he’s willing to accept a vet minimum.

Beal playing six games and then needing hip surgery makes this a pretty risky bet. Miami feels like the more interesting landing spot if they’re confident in his health.

Clippers? Lol and Heat would be wise not to. The name is better than the on the court play.

given how few games Beal has played recently i feel like i’d rather have Russ or Demar if i’m looking at one of these veteran guards

For a minimum he’s probably worth a punt

But I feel bad? Feels like this career is fizzling out

Don’t feel bad bro, dude was top 3 highest paid players in the league at some point

the suns also agreed to pay him $22m a year for 5 years to go away, so he’s got that coming to him for the next 4 years for doing nothing lol.

Mike Conley was the highest paid player in the league at one point

How does that change anything lol

He’s been horrible for years especially value for his contract. His career is already fizzled.

I feel like this EXACT thing was said last year when he signed with the clippers, then he stunk and got a season ending injury. At this point its probably best to just not bother but I’m 100% biased.

He played 6 games while he was already hurt, then got shut down and since recovered. Who gives a crap if he “stunk” for a week one time?

byteturtle | Suns

Because its not like he just suddenly started stinking, he’s stunk for a while.

Also they shut him down for a hip injury which isn’t nothing and even before that he was dealing with back injuries that are most likely going to be with him for the rest of his career. How many more seasons are we gonna do the “he’s worth a punt on a minimum” for a guy who very clearly proved last year that he was not?

No probably about it. If he bounces back to near his 2024-2025 form, he’ll be the best vet min contract in the league outside of LeBron.

He was still a solid player in Portland, just not worth that contract he was on. Great flier for a min.

Veal signs for a minimum but is seen leaving with the Clippers facility with a cartoonish bag that says “not money.”

ESPN notes that “it definitely wasnt Ballmers money, we swear.”

Why would he return? To play the veteran mentor? If he can put up anything close to his Phoenix numbers on a small salary any team could utilize him. Might as well ring chase after that injury.

That’d be a good signing for Mia- they need warm bodies who can make a shot and play with more IQ than gleague call-ups on their bench to absorb regular season minutes.

It’s crazy how he and John Wall pretty much went out the same way. From all star to injury riddled to out of the league. Not even that decline part most players have where you slow down and become a solid starter to sixth man to role player. Just straight, “we can’t even play you you’re this unavailable or this bad.”

Heat has been my pick for Beal for a while. He’s not a defensive guard, but he’d be a ridiculous boost off the bench if he can round back into his Phoenix form.

PG: Davion / Beal

SG: THJ / Pelle Larson

SF: Wiggins / Simone

PF: Giannis / Jovic

C: Bam / Portis

I like it

I don’t know what it is about Beal but losing just follows some players, he’s one of them.
