Clippers already made Bradley Beal mistake the Suns know too well

The Phoenix Suns opted to waive-and-stretch the remainder of Bradley Beal's contract over the summer, allowing him to become a free agent. Shortly after, he signed a two-year, $11 million deal with the Clippers. Beal needed a fresh start, and he found one in LA, where he will start alongside James Harden, Kawhi Leonard, and Ivica Zubac (the final starter is TBD).

Beal dealt with a lot of criticism the past two seasons, but it mainly stemmed from his contract. The Suns chose to trade for him, a decision that quickly backfired. He's a good player, as he averaged 17 points per game last season on 49.
