Ahead of the Suns’ final preseason game against the Lakers, Fox Sports’ analyst Nick Wright made an interesting claim regarding Austin Reaves and Bradley Beal.
“Let me be very clear, I think if you’re trying to win a championship, I would rather have as my third guy Austin Reaves and the things he does, than Bradley Beal, if my top two guys are those guys,” Wright said on his show, “First Things First.”

This does sound like a crazy statement given that Beal has been a better player for a long time, but it’s not an outrageous take.
