In the last couple weeks, there has been much chatter surrounding Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal. It is being reported that Jimmy Butler wants to land in Phoenix, and that would likely involve needing Beal’s contract to be moved (perhaps to a third team).

As he left the arena Thursday night, Beal didn’t sound like someone ready to give in. His role has changed. He has not.

Suns guard Bradley Beal has not discussed waiving his no-trade clause, with his agent telling ESPN that "Bradley's total focus is on helping the Suns turn things around."
