Fred Katz of The Athletic reports Bradley Beal is questionable to play in Saturday’s matchup between the Washington Wizards and Phoenix Suns due to back tightness.
Beal played 30 minutes, scoring 20 points, three rebounds and six assist in a 110-107 win against the Golden State Warriors Friday night. He has started 43 games this season, averaging 35 minutes, scoring 31 points, five rebounds and five assists per game, leading the league in scoring.
If Beal misses tonight’s game, expect Russell Westbrook to see an increase in production. In 656 minutes with Beal off the court this season, Westbrook has a 37.
