Potential Knicks trade target Bradley Beal heading to Suns
One potential trade target for the Knicks is off the board.
The Washington Wizards are finalizing a deal to send shooting guard Bradley Beal to the Suns in exchange for a package including Chris Paul, Landry Shamet, and multiple draft picks, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Beal has lifted his no-trade clause, and when the deal is finalized, he’ll join Kevin Durant and Devin Booker as part of a big three for the Suns.
Beal averaged 23 points on a career-best 51 percent shooting during an injury-plagued 2023 campaign in which he played just 50 games.
Sources told SNY NBA Insider Ian Begley that Beal was one of the high-profile shooting guards the Knicks discussed internally during the season as a trade option this summer, but they’ll now have to look elsewhere.
