“The number one goal is, you didn’t give me the opportunity for me and Brad [Beal] to run it back, like y’all said we (would). That was (my) and our ultimate goal. It was, ‘OK, we’re gonna give it one more shot.’ If it’s just one year or two years, we were gonna give it one more shot just to see.
“… And it’s just crazy we never got to do that. I don’t think they wanted to do that. I think they moved forward and did whatever they wanted, which is cool. But that was the most frustrating thing than anything. Like, to have an opportunity to run it back with my brother and playing with the guy, the level he’s on now.”

Over the last few seasons, Bradley Beal has exploded into stardom. He has been putting up monstrous numbers on a nightly basis, but the Wizards as a unit have failed to support their superstar. Even their newest acquisition, Russell Westbrook, took some time to settle in.
