As confirmed by the Miami Herald's Barry Jackson on Sunday, who had teased an enormous move the previous evening that left fans perplexed, the Heat could be eyeing Beal.

Bradley Beal is "open to cooperating" on a potential buyout from his contract with the Phoenix Suns, Forbes' Evan Sidery reported on Friday.

ESPN NBA Front Office Insider Bobby Marks expects the Suns to pull the trigger on buying out the $110.8 million remaining on Beal's contract, but detailed how it would be very different from Lillard's situation. "Well, he's got to get a home first," Marks said on the Ryen Russillo Podcast.
