Mike Budenholzer reportedly had difficulties communicating with Bradley Beal. In a recent episode of Haynes Briefs, NBA Insider Chris Haynes said that Budenholzer asked the three-time all-star to be the “Jrue Holiday” of the Phoenix Suns roster, but the message to Beal “wasn’t well received.”
Holiday, a multi-time all-star, two-time NBA Champion, and two-time Gold Medal Olympian, has been one of the best defenders since entering the league.
