Bradley Beal reveals ‘everyone’s on my butt**

Bradley Beal he didn’t sugarcoat anything afterwards Los Angeles Clippers’ last loss to the Phoenix Suns. Speaking candidly to reporters, Bill admitted that responsibility has become a daily part of his adjustment to life in Los Angeles.

“They’re all over my head,” Beal said with a laugh, admitting yes his teammates pushed him hard to find his rhythm after a difficult start to the season.

Beal’s return to Phoenix was probably something he wanted to forget. The 32-year-old guard shot just 2 of 14 from the field. He scored five points as the Clippers fell to the Suns. It was a pretty frustrating night for both him and his team.

Signed to a two-year, $11 million deal in the offseason, Beal remains under a minutes restriction. He is currently averaging about 20 minutes per game as he continues to recover from offseason back surgery. Limited playing time prevented him from finding a consistent offensive flow. Right now, he’s far from the star that brought him the scoring numbers that made him one of the league’s elite guards.

The struggles have been compounded by both the expectations surrounding his arrival and the baggage from his time in Phoenix due to injuries. His ineffective showing against the Suns only fueled the scrutiny.

Still, Beal’s comments suggest he’s not going through this alone. His Clippers teammates hold him accountable while encouraging him.

“‘Go, keep shooting, go, go. Just go and be you,'” Beal shared what his teammates tell him. “That’s always encouraging.”

Clippers center Ivica Zubac defended Beal after the loss, saying the veteran got a quality look that just didn’t fall off.

“He’s still trying to find his rhythm,” Zubac noted, noting the team remains confident in Beal’s ability to contribute once his health stabilizes.

Still, Beal’s frustration with his role is clear and perhaps understandable. He a star-studded Clippers team like Kawhi Leonard and James Harden, Beal’s challenge is to adjust from a primary scorer to an effective complementary threat.

For Beal and the Clippers, the responsibility could be just what they need. As the veteran quarterback goes through his struggles, the team’s tough love could be the spark that helps him rediscover his rhythm and his confidence as the season unfolds.
