As the NBA offseason progresses, a number of dramas continue to unfold. One of the most talked-about issues this offseason is about the future prospects of Bradley Beal and John Wall in the Washington Wizards. There are rumors claiming that the Wizards are looking for prospective trade deals in order to take Wall, along with his massive salary, out of the organization. However, part of this rumored deal is to include Beal, something that the Wizards is not comfortable doing as the organization seems to stage a rebuild around him.
As of this writing, Beal has yet to sign a new contract with the Wizards. There are rumors claiming that the Wizards is planning to do a rebuild around him. With Wall still rehabilitating his injuries, it is still not certain whether he will be in top form once he does.
The dilemma behind this Beal and Wall issue is whether the Wizards organization is willing to commit to these two players for a long-term extension. Facing with this uncertainty, rumors are circulating around the league claiming that the Wizards is now shopping for possible trade deals for the two.
On the top of the prospect list is Miami Heat. Heat president Pat Riley has since confirmed his plan of rebuilding the team off the back of Jimmy Butler. With Butler joining the Heat, it was assumed that the organization would look for a viable superstar to pair him with. The first name to come out as a potential partner is Chris Paul, but he was eventually traded to the Oklahoma City Thunder. This is where the possible trade for Beal and Wall comes into play.
According to the Miami Herald, this particular scenario has been discussed thoroughly inside the Heat organization. The report also added that the Heat believes that they can rehabilitate Wall's ruptured Achilles and they are confident that they can groom him to be an All-Star.
Unfortunately for the Heat, there are rumors claiming that the Wizards are not inclined into trading both Beal and Wall. While the organization might lean towards letting Wall go, along with his massive $171 million contract. The same cannot be said when it comes to Beal.
Many analysts have noted that if the Wizards is keen into offloading Wall, they should reconsider putting Beal as part of the package as well. However, all these rumors will eventually fall into pieces should Beal and the Wizards come to a long-term contract agreement.
