Bradley Beal says talk of him wanting out from Wizards is ‘nonsense’

Bradley Beal denied a report Monday that stated the Washington Wizards guard wanted to be traded “pronto.”

Last week, ESPN reported the Wizards were willing to listen to trade offers for Beal and co-star John Wall when Washington got off to a slow start. Details of an explosive practice were also leaked to the media.

But after Washington’s 135-131 overtime win over the Rockets, Beal said he wants to remain with the Wizards.

“That’s nonsense,” Beal told NBA TV. “I heard it earlier before the game and I was like, ‘If it didn’t come from the horse’s mouth, it wasn’t me.’ I got this Washington jersey on and I come here and work every day, you know, until otherwise. This is where I wanna be.”

Bradley Beal makes it clear, the trade request rumors are nonsense.
