Instead, a buyout appears to be on the way. Despite reports claiming the Suns and Beal are negotiating the terms of the buyout, Phoenix general manager Brian Gregory didn't open up on the situation. "With negotiations and contract stuff, we just don't talk about the players," Gregory said.

Bradley Beal's time with the Phoenix Suns may be coming to an end soon, but he will have opportunities elsewhere. According to Marc Stein, Beal expects the Suns to buy him out and is "actively exploring" his options in free agency.
