“Absolutely dumbfounded by this trade” – Bradley Beal joining Kevin Durant and Devin Booker in Phoenix FAILS TO IMPRESS NBA Twitter

The Phoenix Suns are on the verge of making a blockbuster trade that would send Chris Paul, Landry Shamet and several draft picks to the Washington Wizards in exchange for Bradley Beal, sources told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski on Sunday.

The trade, which is expected to be finalized in the next few days, would create a new Big 3 in Phoenix, with Beal joining Kevin Durant and Devin Booker. The Suns, who reached the Conference Semifinals last season, are looking to take the next step and win their first championship in franchise history.

Beal, who has been with Washington for his entire 11-year career, is a three-time All-Star and one of the best scorers in the league. He averaged 23.2 points, 3.9 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game last season.

BREAKING: The Washington Wizards are trading three-time All-Star Bradley Beal to the Phoenix Suns for Chris Paul, Landry Shamet, a handful of second-round picks, and multiple pick swaps, league sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.

This is the second big move for Phoenix’s new owner Mat Ishbia, who stunned the NBA world by landing Kevin Durant in a massive deal shortly after taking over the team in February. The Suns now have three of the league’s elite scorers in Beal, Durant and Devin Booker, who have all scored at least 22 points per game in their careers. The trio will cost the Suns a fortune in salary and luxury tax, but they are clearly going all-in for a championship.

Bradley Beal’s trade to the Suns fails to impress NBA Twitter

Phoenix Suns fans would be ecstatic with the idea of Bradley Beal joining forces with Kevin Durant and Devin Booker. But not everyone is on board with the trade. Many fans have taken to social media to voice their opinions on the deal. Here are some of the reactions from Twitter:

I’m sorry I’m absolutely dumbfounded by this trade cause Phoenix already has Devin Booker and what is their logic instead of getting younger at the PG position they go out their and trade for someone like Beal when they already have Devin Booker classic Phoenix thinking 101 ? https://t.co/X820vpTKS0 pic.twitter.com/25LoPivEM1

We’ll wait and see all the details to the trade, but just from seeing this would have to imagine Miami could’ve offered something better if they truly were interested.

Earlier, there were reports that the Miami Heat were willing to offer Haywood Highsmith and Nikola Jovic, two young prospects for Beal, but the Wizards may prefer expiring contracts and draft picks.

With Beal taking his talents to Arizona, this is already one of the most talked-about moves in NBA history. Whether it will be a success or a failure remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: it will shake up the league and create a lot of drama and excitement.
