Miami Heat widely considered favorites to land Bradley Beal
For all the efforts in print Wednesday to paint the situation as exploratory, few rival teams see it that way. The Miami Heat are already widely regarded as the favorites to win the trade sweepstakes for Bradley Beal — largely because Beal, possessing the NBA’s only active full no-trade clause in his contract, will have so much say in where he goes. The Heat are believed to be high on Beal’s list of preferred destinations if it is indeed time, as it appears, to move on from the only team he has ever known.

The Knicks considered Bradley Beal before just this week. In fact, they’ve already let necessary people know they would be interested.

Will Bradley Beal enter the trade market?
Are the Bulls quietly shopping Zach LaVine?
Who will the Hornets draft, Scoot Henderson or Brandon Miller?

The Heat are believed to be high on Bradley Beal’s list of preferred destinations, per @TheSteinLine.
“Beal’s no-trade clause puts Miami in a strong position to assemble an offer around Tyler Herro that the Wizards would presumably otherwise show little interest in considering.” – 11:51 AM

The @WashWizards & Bradley Beal could part ways quickly in a trade, but waiting might be better.
“Market value is as low as it has ever been on Brad,” one GM said.
Says cap relief is about the only return Wiz can expect … for now.

On one ESPN show, you have a host asking “Is Herro/Robinson/1st rounder?” enough for Beal (it’s TOO much because of contract IMO). On another ESPN show, Windy says contract/no-trade makes huge trade haul unlikely, while noting Heat figures prominently in discussions. – 10:51 AM

This is the deal. Almost without a doubt. Could expand to include more in both directions. Only include picks to show what’s available. #Heat owe #Thunder 2025 (lottery prot.), which kicks to 2026 if protected. That forces ’24 & ’27 to become swaps. Can amend…LOVE Beal in MIA. pic.twitter.com/ApNad7rdRd – 10:54 PM

Porzingis, by decision to reportedly opt into 36 M, could be in play in Beal scenarios (that wouldn’t hard cap you) and his skill set would be very helpful here. But injury history a concern. – 10:08 PM

In my Lillard/Beal world, those 2,Bam,Jimmy would be your core for 4 yrs,period. Couldn’t sign buyout guys,no exception money. Beal no trade clause comes with him. If any front office can find minimums &undrafted rookies to supplement Big 4 & Caleb, it’s the Heat’s. But big tax. – 9:56 PM

Was just thinking about those great Tatum-Beal duels from 2020-21. It’s amazing how long ago that feels. Beal hasn’t done much since, and it’s hard to assume he turns it up in a new destination. Trying to get him without Brown won’t work, and trading Brown for him isn’t worth it. – 2:37 PM

Wizards waited like 4-5 years too long to trade Bradley Beal if we’re being completely honest. Still a good player, but that contract is ROUGH at this point – 2:25 PM

Beal will soon be on the move and it sounds like the #HEATCulture but not the #Sixers are interested.
Well, the Sixers should find a way to get interested.

Ignoring asset packages and their own needs, what teams do we think Bradley Beal would waive his no-trade clause for?
I think there are 11 definite “yes” votes: Bucks, Celtics, Sixers, Knicks, Nets, Heat, Lakers, Clippers Warriors, Nuggets, Suns. – 1:39 PM

Here’s what I will say about Brad Beal from watching him since he was as in AAU and college.
Beal has a high basketball IQ and has the ability to make people around him better. He just hasn’t had enough around him in Washington, so has had to be primary scorer.

There isn’t really any redeeming quality behind choosing a Beal trade over re-signing Harden. And doing both would be counterproductive to team-building efforts beyond the starting five. – 1:31 PM

My initial guess is that the Lakers don’t have a realistic path to trading for Bradley Beal.
Even if the No. 17 pick/unprotected 2029 were enough as assets, the real issue is salary matching. The new CBA lowers the amount of salary teams above the first apron can absorb to 110% – 1:30 PM

Nothing coming out today about Bradley Beal is all that surprising, of course Michael Winger and Mark Bartelstein are going to talk
I still don’t think he gets traded before the draft between Winger contemplating retool vs. rebuild, getting to know Beal, and not settling – 1:26 PM

For those Celtics fans feverishly cooking up Bradley Beal trades:

A rebuild, thus finally trading Bradley Beal, was the most likely path for the Wizards after missing the playoffs for the 4th time in 5 seasons and hiring a new front office, led by Michael Winger.
It takes two to tango here because Beal holds a rare no-trade clause. – 1:21 PM

Bradley Beal has $207.7M over 4 years remaining on his contract and a no trade clause that would be inherited by his new team.

I completely understand why the Wizards would look to cut bait on Bradley Beal at this point, but in doing so they’d be trading him with his value at its absolute lowest. It almost makes no sense to trade him for that very reason – 1:10 PM

Amid the reports of Bradley Beal to be made available by the Wizards, consider that Beal, who turns 30 on June 28, is due:
$46.7 million next season
$50.2 million in 2024-25
$53.7 million in 2025-26
With a player option for $57.1 million in 2026-27
(He also has 15% trade kicker) – 1:10 PM

More on this storyline
Previously, as long as Beal remained committed to the Wizards — and by all accounts, Beal has long prioritized helping lead a contender in Washington as opposed to requesting a trade elsewhere — Leonsis had directed his Wizards leadership to retain Beal, league sources told Yahoo Sports, and build around one the game’s top scorers. Washington’s allegiance to Beal has been so strong, the Wizards never truly entertained inquiries for Beal prior to the 2022 trade deadline, sources said, before Washington awarded him for his loyalty with a five-year, $251 million contract in the opening sequence of free agency. -via Yahoo! Sports / June 15, 2023
Miami has always been the franchise most often mentioned by league personnel as a Beal suitor. The Heat are perpetually positioning themselves to make a run at the next available star, whether it was Donovan Mitchell last summer or contacting Brooklyn about Kyrie Irving before February’s trade deadline, sources confirmed to Yahoo Sports -via Yahoo! Sports / June 15, 2023
There have been rumblings about Milwaukee’s interest in Beal as well, as The Athletic first reported, but that would almost certainly have to include All-Star guard Khris Middleton heading back to Washington, and Milwaukee, by all accounts, has plans to bring back both Middleton and Brook Lopez. -via Yahoo! Sports / June 15, 2023
