Miami Heat: Bradley Beal not signing extension with Wizards (yet)

The Miami Heat have been keeping an eye on Bradley Beal‘s contract extension with the Washington Wizards. As of Friday, Beal is eligible to sign an extension worth $111 million over three years, but per David Aldridge of The Athletic, he has not yet signed and may not sign it at all.

According to Aldridge:

So, bookkeeping: the Wizards made their three-year, $111 max extension offer to Bradley Beal today, the first day they’re eligible to do so, per sources. Beal, unsurprisingly, is not signing it immediately, if at all. While grateful for the gesture (1/3)

While the extension doesn’t keep him from getting back on the free agent market again in his prime as he is currently 26 years old, there isn’t really a good reason to sign this deal from Bradley Beal’s perspective.
