NBA Twitter Mocks Phoenix Suns’ Bench After Bradley Beal Trade

Washington Wizards star Bradley Beal has been traded to the Phoenix Suns, surprising those believing he would go to the Miami Heat.

The biggest concern for Beal going to Phoenix was the lack of depth. The production outside of Kevin Durant and Devin Booker was their detriment against the Denver Nuggets. With the trade finalized, social media had plenty of jokes for the potential look of their new bench.

The Heat were the frontrunners to acquire Beal but were unable to get him. Rumors came out that Miami wasn’t aggressive enough in pursuit of the three-time All-Star. Even if they did put in a strong offer, Beal is the ultimate decider, so he could have overruled it and preferred Phoenix instead.

Whatever the case may be, Miami is in trouble. They now have to throw a hail mary in hopes of getting Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard, who already said he does not want to leave.

This could be Déjà vu all over again if they don’t get any big acquisitions.
