In just a few short weeks, the Washington Wizards will be forced to make one of the biggest personnel decisions they’ve had in quite some time: What to do with Bradley Beal?
The former third overall pick’s contract is coming up, and the Wizards will need to decide whether to give the talented, injury-prone 22-year-old shooting guard a max contract or let him walk.
But first, a disclaimer: At this point, we don’t yet know if the choice is going to be that simple. But even if the Wizards can get away with offering below-max money – which is doubtful – they’ll still have to give Beal a sizable chunk of change.
