Warriors and Lakers Proposed Trade Destinations for Phoenix Suns Star

The Phoenix Suns suffered an embarrassing first round sweep at the hand of the Minnesota Timberwolves, failing to win a single playoff game after assembling a big three of Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and Bradley Beal. The early exit has led some to believe the Suns may look to move Beal this summer, as the three-time All-Star is owed roughly $161M over the next three seasons (which includes his $57.1M player option for the 2026-27 seasons). Trading a contract of this size is always difficult, but when considering Beal's overall production and availability this season, along with the league's incredibly restrictive CBA, the Suns will have a hard time finding any takers for him.
