Bradley Beal will be signing with the Los Angeles Clippers, per ESPN’s Shams Charania. The veteran guard has agreed with the Phoenix Suns on a contract buyout and will be moving to his new team once he clears waivers.
Beal, 32, has agreed to a two-year, $11 million deal that includes a player option for the 2026-27 season. The Clippers will be the third team for the three-time (2018, 2019, 2021) All-Star player after the Washington Wizards and the Phoenix Suns.
The Suns acquired Beal in the Chris Paul trade in 2023 with the goal of creating a “Big Three” together with Kevin Durant and Devin Booker. It didn’t work out as Phoenix was eliminated 4-0 in the 2024 playoffs and finished 11th in the Western Conference during the next season, failing to even make the Play-In tournament.
Beal averaged 17.0 points, 3.7 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 2024-25.
