Former Washington Wizards star will be forced to take lesser role with new team

After years of being the number one scoring option with the Washington Wizards, Bradley Beal may now have to settle for much less. Something that he hasn’t done since before the John Wall injuries started to pile up.

Following a brief trade saga, Beal was sent to the Phoenix Suns on Jun. 24. But joining a team featuring scoring superstars in Kevin Durant and Devin Booker, he won’t have the luxury of scoring the way he’s used to.

When John Wall was traded to the Houston Rockets in December 2020, it allowed Beal to carry the scoring responsibilities.
