Preseason stats.
(And how about we assume that everyone knows how to weight their value appropriately, so nobody needs to say anything like "IT'S PRESEASON - THEY'RE MEANINGLESS"?)

He's a mix of guys.
He gets a lot of Booker comparisons. Smaller than Book, but I think he's smarter. Starter on really good teams.

Just because you tell people not to say they're meaningless doesn't change the fact that they are indeed meaningless.

The most impressive player in the NCAA Torunament last year. Could be their next IT.

I think he’s going to be a lot better NBA player then many guys selected higher than him. I realize they draft on potential and height, length, athleticism, etc is a huge deal in the draft. I think the IT comparison is pretty spot on.

Really surprised that Justin Anderson has been unable to stick.

The Buddy Hield drama in SAC is fascinating on so many levels. He reportedly rejected a 4yr, 90 mil deal and wants something in the range of 110 mil.

...I know Beal is pretty good and all, but which exec is he giving reach arounds to in order to keep his contract juiced and extended?!
well, CJ signed a 3-year/100M extension; 33M/year
Beal signed a 2-year/72M extension; 36M/year
I'd say Beal is a better player, so if CJ's deal is a gauge, Beal's seems fair

It’s a very good deal for Wizards. Surprised they managed to get him extended considering how grim their team is. He may still get traded though.
There’s literally nobody on that roster who isn’t terrible aside from him. Jury still out on Hachimura in his rookie season but the rest of that team is just crap. Moves they made were ridiculous too. Give Ish Smith a chunk of mid level exception but let much better Satoransky go, come on now.

...I suppose that is debatable as to who is better, but yes this gauge makes it in the range of "fair" -- however, Beal does not have the playoff acumen nor overall success so maybe they think that contract is easier to trade so teams taking it on wont feel like it's just a rental

I believe when you sign an extension you are ineligible to be traded for 6 months (or 1 year if it's a super max). Right now we can't trade CJ until January 30th (not that we would). 6 months from now is past the end of the season so unless I'm wrong (I could be) the Wiz can't trade Beal until the summer of 2020.
Edit: This makes Beal's extension weird in that it means the Wizards can't trade him and Beal can't leave this year.

Not sure who it was but I told a few people on this board last college season that Herro was gonna be a stud and they didn’t believe me. He’s got the shot and the attitude.
