Bradley Beal ultimately received a contract buyout from the Phoenix Suns, allowing him to sign with the Los Angeles Clippers, but it didn't come without sacrificing some of his previous contract.

Bradley Beal and the Phoenix Suns have agreed to a buyout on the final two years of his contract. That's according to a person with knowledge of the deal who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Wednesday because the deal hasn’t been officially announced.
