Player movement is more prevalent than ever in today’s NBA, and it’s not limited to the journeymen far down the bench. Even stars bounce from team to team in a way that we just didn’t see two, three, four decades ago.
After the Phoenix Suns gave him $96M to go away, Beal had a chance to show his old team what it was missing Thursday night. Unfortunately for the Los Angeles Clippers, Beal did most of the missing.
