The Clippers can offer Beal up to $5.3 million in salary this upcoming season. Los Angeles used most of its non-taxpayer mid-level exception to sign center Brook Lopez. The Clippers also made a trade that saw Norman Powell go to the Miami Heat and John Collins come to Los Angeles in a three-deal deal with the Utah Jazz.

4 NBA Teams Emerge as Likely Bradley Beal Post-Suns Buyout Destinations originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Pricey Phoenix Suns shooting guard Bradley Beal, one of many shooting guards on that nonsensical franchise's current roster, is apparently nearing buyout talks with the team.

Gerald Bourguet of PHNX Sports reported that Beal's buyout is "imminent," and he's likely to have $96.9 million of the $110.8 million remaining on his contract stretched over the next five years. That would allow the Suns to avoid going over both tax aprons.
