Washington Wizards — Bradley Beal

This one is a pipe dream, but it did have some traction earlier in the offseason. When rumors were swirling around which star the Warriors could possibly aim for, Beal was a target that was oftentimes mentioned.

Beal is an absolute monster on the court. It’s almost unbelievable that he wasn’t an All-Star last season, averaging over 30 points per game. A former top-three pick, Beal has certainly lived up to the hype.

As with many other stars, he’s not going to be traded unless he requests to be dealt.

Beal is too good to just trade straight up for the No. 2 overall pick. And with John Wall, hopefully back, it’d have to be a behemoth of a deal as the Wizards likely will have their eye set on the postseason.

The Wizards have the No. 9 overall spot so maybe the Warriors top 2020 pick, top 2021 pick, and Jordan Poole would do the trick for the No. 9 pick and Beal. It’s a shot in the dark, but to snag a superstar like Beal, it’d take something drastic.

The Warriors may not make a trade, but if they do, it should be expected to be one of these 29 players.
