Bradley Beal

The Washington Wizards could enter a full rebuild this offseason. After trading for Russell Westbrook the last offseason, if Bradley Beal doesn’t commit to them long-term with a contract extension, they will have to seriously consider trading him.

While getting Bradley Beal to commit to playing in New Orleans long-term won’t be an easy task, the appeal of playing alongside Zion Williamson might be enough to convince him this is a place he can win some basketball games.

Bradley Beal would make for an excellent inside-out combination with Williamson. He could dominate the perimeter while Williamson does his thing in the paint.

Having to contend with two players that can score as easily as those two would be a handful every night for opposing defenses.
