With Bradley Beal out for season, Washington Wizards talk long-term plans with agent, sources say

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal -- who'll undergo season-ending surgery on his left wrist -- and his agent Mark Bartelstein of Priority Sports met with owner Ted Leonsis and general manager Tommy Sheppard on Monday to discuss the three-time All-Star's future and the franchise's plans for constructing a roster, sources told ESPN.

The conversation -- which included reaching a consensus on Beal's ultimate decision to repair a torn scapholunate ligament -- will start to shape Beal's decision on his future with the organization.

Beal -- who holds a $36.4 million player option for next season -- could sign a new deal to remain with the Wizards worth as much as $245 million over five years.
