Bradley Beal trade: Grades for Warriors' potential deals for Wizards star

As Bradley Beal continues to waste away in Washington, it's only a matter of time before the Wizards star follows in the footsteps of Anthony Davis, James Harden and others, pushing his way out of town.

While NBA teams reportedly don't expect the Wizards to entertain offers for Beal, the NBA's leading scorer, at the moment, it feels like he'll be on his way out of the nation's capital sooner rather than later.

No team might be better equipped to entice the Wizards to deal their best player than the Warriors. A package centering around James Wiseman and the Minnesota Timberwolves' 2021 top-three protected first-round pick is hard to top. That would give the Wizards three young elite talents to start their rebuild around (Washington also will have a top draft pick next year).

While any trade package would start with those two assets, the Warriors also would have to find a way to match Beal's salary to make the deal work. Below, we will look at four potential deals -- all of which include Wiseman and the T-Wolves' pick -- that the Warriors could put together to snag Beal and restart their dynasty.
