Bradley Beal reveals why he connects better with Damian Lillard

Bradley Beal and Damian Lillard

Since the start of the season, the 27-year-old is yet to take his foot off the gas pedal. Bradley Beal is the leading point scorer in the NBA and with Russell Westbrook by his side, Beal has done everything possible to help his team rank higher in the Eastern Conference.
Beal has led Wizards to an exceptional form lately with a 7-3 streak in their last 10 games. Washington Wizards’ newfound form has finally given slim hope to franchise fans that they can make a comeback in the second half of the season.
Besides him, only Steph Curry or Damian Lillard have shown that level of loyalty to their franchises. But if the Wizards do not make the playoffs this year, Beal might finally request for a trade.
“Committed and Loyal”: Bradley Beal on Damian Lillard
As we mentioned earlier, Dame has stayed loyal to the soil with the Blazers. What’s more impressive is the fact that Portland is a small market. So, it’s even harder for them to attract free agents during NBA free agency.
A recent report by “The Athletic” revealed a conversation between Dame and Beal. Beal explained his talks with Lillard as:
“Dame and I, we’ve kind of built a relationship. It was one of that kind of picking-his brain (conversations), because he’s somebody who has been committed and loyal, and fought through the grind.”
According to Beal, these conversations with Lillard have been very helpful for him. He further continued, “Those conversations were great. … We always say, it’s always easy to jump on the other side with two, three other guys who are really good, but at the same time, that grass isn’t always greener. We’ve seen that. History has shown that.”
