It took some time, but the Washington Wizards locked Bradley Beal into a two-year extension worth $72-million. Thus focus shifted off of their personnel decisions and onto a year that will feature more questions than answers.
Beal has signed on for two, maybe three (player option) more years of Wizards basketball, with the first of those likely without his backcourt partner, point guard John Wall. While his teammate recovers from an Achilles’ injury, the newly signed shooting guard will be leading the pack.
With that comes a volume of shots and usage rate that a scorer like Beal simply thrives on.
