Five-year deal keeps star shooting guard in D.C.
Bradley Beal is staying in Washington. The star shooting guard has agreed to a five-year, $251 million supermax contract with the Wizards, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
The deal includes $251 million in guaranteed money and keeps Beal in Washington through the 2026-27 season. He will earn an average of $50.2 million per year, making him one of the highest-paid players in the NBA.
Beal, 29, is a three-time All-Star and has been the Wizards' leading scorer for the past seven seasons. He averaged 23.2 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 6.6 assists per game last season.
The Wizards are hoping that Beal can lead them back to the playoffs after they finished 35-47 last season and missed the playoffs for the second straight year.
Beal's new deal is a sign that he is committed to the Wizards and believes in the team's future. He has been a vocal leader for the Wizards and has said that he wants to win a championship in Washington.
