Bradley Beal’s recent ridiculous scoring pace has included more than a few historical footnotes. Not all of them are positive ones.
After setting back-to-back career highs with 53 points against the Chicago Bulls on Sunday and 55 against the NBA-leading Milwaukee Bucks on Monday, Beal became the first player in league history to score 50 or more on consecutive nights — while on the losing side of both games.
After the overtime loss to the Bucks, Beal was serious when he said he felt “terrible, honestly.”
“I’m a winner, so you can throw those 55 out with the last 53,” he said.
