Bradley Beal and Jimmy Butler at work

The Kings light another beam

When I was a bartender, I was annoyed on the rare times my boss switched which bar we would bartend behind minutes after we arrived for work.

Minutes after we arrived late for work, whatever.

If an editor told me to write about the Suns, but moved me at the last minute to mull over 76ers? I’d furrow my brow, but luckily for me this never happened, not even to an NBA blurter.

Why do we do it to Bradley Beal?

Beal came off his team’s bench on Monday night. Following the contest Beal confirmed to reporters he had no indication the Suns would bring the three-time All-Star off the Phoenix pine.

Was the 31-year old surprised to be benched by Suns coach Mike Budenholzer?

“One-hundred percent.”
