Bradley Beal has been in trade talks involving Jimmy Butler and some fans have been obnoxiously heckling about it.
Kamiah Adams-Beal posted on social media the heckler's aggressive remarks were overheard by her children during game.
Bradley Beal started the second half for Dunn, who replaced him in the starting lineup beginning Jan. 6 at Philadelphia. Suns coach Mike Budenholzer moved Jusuf Nurkic and Beal to the bench starting that game.
The Phoenix Suns have four bigs on the roster, including newly acquired 7-footer Nick Richards. Nurkic was moved to the bench earlier this month.
Bradley Beal's no-trade clause is the ultimate complicating factor in any potential Jimmy Butler trade between the Suns and the Heat.
While the rumor mill has previously linked Bradley Beal to teams such as the Milwaukee Bucks and Chicago Bulls in potential blockbuster scenarios with Butler landing in Phoenix, all evidence
During the Hoop Collective discussion, Windhorst’s ESPN colleague Tim Bontemps also questioned why the Bulls would be motivated to swap out LaVine for Beal, given the limited draft assets the Suns could offer as sweeteners and the All-Star caliber season LaVine is having so far this year (24.0 PPG on .512/.444/.792 shooting).
Phoenix Suns list guard Bradley Beal as available for Saturday’s game against the Washington Wizards after missing Wednesday’s game due to a left ankle sprain. Center Jusuf Nurkic was not listed on Saturday’s injury report. Nurkic last played on Jan. 7 against the Charlotte Hornets, scoring eight points and grabbing three rebounds.
This presupposes that the trade for Beal is the original roster construction problem in Phoenix that must be solved -- that under the new collective bargaining agreement, building a team around three max salary players, one of whom is performing far below a max level, is untenable.
Phoenix Suns superstar forward Kevin Durant and rookie Ryan Dunn are both available for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves at Footprint Center to end a three-game homestand. Durant was previously listed as questionable with a left thumb injury while Dunn was also listed as questionable with a left ankle sprain.
Finch was having what appeared to be a peaceful conversation with game official CJ Washington who prepared to hand the ball to Suns guard Bradley Beal to inbound. On a dime, Washington blew his whistle to assess Finch a technical foul, his second of the night after he picked up the first during the first quarter.
