Bradley Beal is staying with the Los Angeles Clippers, re-signing on a two-year, $13.2 million deal, per ESPN reporting confirmed by agent Mark Bartelstein. The second year includes a player option.
The guarantee structure of the contract drew some clarification across outlets. Initial reporting indicated the second-year player option would be partially guaranteed for $3 million. However, Jake Fischer of The Stein Line and Bleacher Report later reported that both seasons are technically partially guaranteed.
Beal, a three-time All-Star, is attempting a second season with the Clippers after his first year with the team was limited. The guard's return comes as the Clippers continue roster construction amid the ongoing Kawhi Leonard situation and an NBA investigation into the team.
