The All-Star guard Bradley Beal has agreed to extend his contract with the Washington Wizards with a two year $72 million maximum contract.
The 26-year-old’s extension will begin in the 2021-22 season and has a player option for the 2022-23 season which will keep him out of free agency for three more seasons with a guarantee of $130 for four years.
Beal’s agent Mark Bartelstein said”Brad has always made it clear to me, that in a perfect world, he would never leave Washington. He has felt an obligation to be the focal point in turning the Wizards into an elite team. He’s thrilled about all the resources that Ted is pouring into the franchise and thrilled how committed [Leonsis] and Tommy are to building something special.”
