Won't play Sunday Beal is out for Sunday's game against the Kings due to rest.

Impact The final game of the season for the Suns won't have any of the members of their Big Three, as Devin Booker (calf) and Kevin Durant (ankle) are also out for this contest. Beal had a rough season in 2024-25 and there's already talk of him leaving the franchise in the offseason. He was limited to only 38 starts and 53 appearances, averaging 17.0 points, 3.7 assists and 3.3 rebounds per game. That was his worst scoring output since the 2014-15 campaign.

Drops 21 points in victory Beal racked up 21 points (8-13 FG, 5-9 3Pt), four rebounds and six assists over 28 minutes during Friday's 117-98 win over the Spurs.

Impact Beal delivered in the decisive win, and the chances of Beal's return next year are likely due to his no-trade clause. The Suns are carrying a lot of cash with their star-studded lineup, and some heads are bound to roll after the dramatic eight-game skid that dashed the team's playoff hopes. Only time will tell if Beal elects to find another suitor, but injury issues harm his value.

Phoenix Suns Could Make Historic Decision With Bradley Beal This Offseason The Phoenix Suns could do what no NBA team has done before to shed themselves of Bradley Beal.

APRIL 10 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Leads team with 25 points Beal supplied 25 points (8-17 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 5-5 FT), one rebound, four assists and one steal in 39 minutes during Wednesday's 125-112 loss to the Thunder.

Impact Although Beal did his best to turn the tide, the Suns were eliminated from playoff contention with their eight consecutive loss. Beal's season has been a mixed bag after appearing in only 52 games, and he's currently logging the second-worst seasonal scoring average of his 13-year career. Someone will have to answer for this disappointing result, and while coach Mike Budenholzer might lose his job, players like Beal could also be on the move.
