The Los Angeles Clippers may have just made the biggest splash of the offseason, signing Bradley Beal to a two-year, $11 million contract. Beal, who most recent

The Phoenix Suns parting ways with Bradley Beal appears imminent.

With Lillard officially gone, the Bucks have an enormous scoring void to fill. Turner gives them perimeter shooting and interior defense, but Beal would give the Bucks needed isolation scoring and — when available — is the most proven scorer on the open market.

Things couldn't have gone much worse for Beal in Phoenix, but the star guard will now get the chance to rewrite his story and rehabilitate his reputation.

Gerald Bourguet of PHNX Sports reported that Beal's buyout is "imminent," and he's likely to have $96.9 million of the $110.8 million remaining on his contract stretched over the next five years. That would allow the Suns to avoid going over both tax aprons.

The Milwaukee Bucks desperately need proven talent in the backcourt. Two surprising developments just cleared a path.

Rumors have swirled over the last few days that the Phoenix Suns are on the verge of buying out Bradley Beal. The former All-Star guard has two years and about $110 million remaining on his $251 million max deal he signed in 2022.

However, according to NBA insider Chris Haynes, the Bucks have not inquired about Beal. In fact, "a connection between the two is nonexistent," Haynes said Wednesday.

The Bucks may be desperate, but they may also think Beal may not be worth the gamble. Another team might take that chance, but Milwaukee does not appear to be that team.

This season, Beal has allowed guards Austin Reaves (87.5 percent), Tyrese Maxey (53.8 percent), Tyler Herro (62.5 percent) and Trae Young (62.5 percent) to destroy him while matching up against them.
