Bradley Beal mulling Wizards' future, could make decision next week

Bradley Beal has been seriously mulling his future in recent weeks, and at times has been very much on the fence about whether or not he wants to remain with the Wizards, sources tell The Athletic. The All-NBA guard is expected to use the weekend to continue giving his career some thought and could arrive at a decision during the upcoming week.

ANALYSIS: With Bradley Beal having to step back from Team USA because of a positive COVID test, the All-Star guard has had lots of time to think about his future with the Wizards. Reports also surfaced that although All-Star guard Russell Westbrook has also been linked to trade speculation, Washington has every intention of keeping him. If Beal ultimately does request a trade expect just about every team to put together a trade package because Beal is arguably the best offensive shooting guard in the league right now.
