29 Jun
Summary
- Beal declined his $5.6 million player option for next season.
- He is now an unrestricted free agent this summer.
- Hip surgery ended his season after just six games.

Bradley Beal has officially declined his $5.6 million player option for the next NBA season. This decision makes him an unrestricted free agent as of this summer. His previous season was significantly hampered by a hip injury.
The veteran guard's time with the Clippers was brief, playing only six games before undergoing hip surgery. During that limited play, Beal recorded career lows in points (8.2), assists (1.7), and three-pointers made (1.2) per game. His market value appears to be at an all-time low.
