League sources say Bradley Beal’s current contract stipulates that he is owed a 25% advance payment on his 2025-26 salary on July 15. As in this coming Tuesday. The early payment is valued at more than $13 million. While sources say that Beal will ultimately receive that amount no matter how his eventual exit from the Suns plays out, it is believed that he could elect to wait for that payment to go through before proceeding with his departure from the desert.

APHoops: Chris Paul is more likely to sign with the LA Clippers than the Phoenix Suns after the Norman Powell trade, per @ramonashelburne . Shelburne also hints at the possibility of the Clippers signing BOTH Bradley Beal and Chris Paul. -via x.com / July 9, 2025
Beal understands that because the money has dried up on the free-agent market, he is unlikely to make back the $13.8 million he would be giving up right away. His ideal move could be to sign a two-year contract with a player option on the second season, allowing him to re-enter the market in 2026 to sign for a larger number. -via New York Times / July 8, 2025
