Many talented basketball players in the G hardly get the coverage they deserve. I’ve been lucky to cover guys like Jordan Goodwin and Quenton Jackson and see their grind to get to the #NBA so anytime I can acknowledge those guys, I will. Here’s Beal on both players’ journeys. pic.twitter.com/SstArSceGI – 10:13 PM

Brad Beal and Coach Wes Unseld Jr believe in this Wizards roster.
“Health” was the buzzword. This team has shown when fully healthy, they’re a good team. I believe the numbers back that up. – 11:20 PM

…and they hear it. I mean, TJ McConnell pretty much had a back and forth with some fan for about the entire 3rd quarter. And then there was the lil kid who yelled BRADLEY BEAL! when he went to the stationary bike. When Brad looked up and winked, the kid was over the moon… – 11:11 PM

There’s something about the Wizards when they play the Pacers. They’re up 80-57 after shooting 73%.
Only performance worse this season was giving up 85 1H points to Milwaukee.
Beal has 19pts. Mathurin with 11 off the bench. – 8:07 PM

Pacers led the Wizards 29-28, then the Wizards outscored them 9-0 over the final 3mins for a 37-29 lead.
Beal and Hield scored a quick 10pts each. Pacers’ bench is shorthanded, just 11 deep tonight.
Isaiah Jackson got the backup 5mins, spent some time with Jalen Smith. – 7:35 PM

Jayson Tatum said the best part of breaking the record for youngest player to hit 1,000 threes is that it was Bradley Beal’s record.

What do the Wizards still need to do to get better? Bradley Beal: That’s the biggest question. That’s Shepp’s job (Wizards general manager Tommy Sheppard). That’s his decision, you know? All we have to do is fill in and kind of filter and how that envisions, how that works with all of us and play into that, you know? But for the most part, we let him handle all that. Shepp has the toughest job in the world. I don’t want to have a job where I’m telling or picking or choosing who’s going, so it’s tough. But all I can do is trust what he’s got going. That’s all I can do. -via Bally Sports / February 8, 2023
