Wizards GM quashes Beal trade request rumors

Wizards General Manager Tommy Sheppard put an end Wednesday to the trade rumors floating around about the future of Bradley Beal’s career in Washington, confirming that neither Beal nor his agent has asked for a trade.

“Everything else to me, the outside noise, is just noise,” Sheppard said. “I just know, whenever I pick up the phone, we have conversations, I give him updates [about] kind of what we’re thinking.”

Sheppard said he went to Las Vegas to watch Beal play in the U.S. basketball exhibitions against Argentina and Australia.
