Mark Bartelstein finalized a $99 million buyout for Bradley Beal with his son, Josh, who is the CEO of the Phoenix Suns. This occurs just before a family wedding and involves a significant contract that ends Beal's challenging period in Phoenix. Beal's role diminished under previous coach Mike Budenholzer, and although he had an impressive shooting average, it did not align with his maximum salary of $50 million, prompting the buyout and subsequent deal with the LA Clippers.
The end of Beal's tenure in Phoenix came in three acts, where new head coach Jordan Ott presented a plan on how Beal could be used next season.
Despite Beal's impressive stats averaging 17 points and shooting nearly 50%, his maximum salary of $50 million and the team's poor performance did not meet expectations.
