Bradley Beal is seemingly leaning towards staying with the Wizards, but he doesn’t view interest from other teams as a bad thing, as he recently opened up about on Draymond Green‘s podcast.
“I’m kind of embracing everything,” Beal said, “so I’m not upset about the rumors, I’m not upset about, you know, teams wanting me. I feel like that’s a good thing, right? We put in the work and we’re wanted by a lot of people, not just where we’re at.” (h/t James Herbert of CBS Sports)
The Heat have been mentioned as a potential destination for Beal shall he have a change of heart.
