With Beal working on a buyout agreement with the Phoenix Suns, the Los Angeles Clippers "are likely the leaders to sign the guard," per The Athletic's Law Murray, Dan Woike and Fred Katz. Beal "has also considered" the Milwaukee Bucks, Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Lakers.

The Phoenix Suns are undergoing major changes. The team traded away Kevin Durant in a blockbuster five-team deal. Now, the franchise is now focused on reaching a buyout agreement with Bradley Beal. According to multiple reports,

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.
