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.

With Lillard officially gone, the Bucks have an enormous scoring void to fill. Turner gives them perimeter shooting and interior defense, but Beal would give the Bucks needed isolation scoring and — when available — is the most proven scorer on the open market.

If he goes to the Clippers, Beal would be part of a potential lineup including James Harden, Kawhi Leonard, John Collins and Ivica Zubac.
