Bradley Beal, 3-time All-Star, agrees to buyout with the Phoenix Suns, AP source says
The person spoke to the AP about Beal's buyout on condition of anonymity because the deal hasn't been officially announced.
The move paves the way for Beal to sign a two-year, $11 million deal with the Los Angeles Clippers, ESPN reported.
Beal is expected to give back $13.9 million of the $110 million he's owed from the Suns, which allows Phoenix more flexibility as it tries to rebuild its roster.
The 32-year-old Beal would join a veteran Clippers roster that includes James Harden and Kawhi Leonard. Beal averaged 17.6 points over two disappointing, injury-filled seasons with the Suns.

Fed's Williams won't comment on Trump attacks on central bank
By Michael S. Derby NEW YORK (Reuters) -Federal Reserve Bank of New York President John Williams declined on Wednesday to comment on President Donald Trump's attacks on the central bank and what it might mean if the president were to somehow remove the Fed's leader from office. 'I can't comment' on what the president has said and how markets reacted, Williams told reporters. He was commenting on reports from earlier in the day that suggested Trump was close to firing Fed Chairman Jerome Powell, even as the president later said that was not something he was planning to do. Williams reiterated that an independent central bank delivers better results and noted that in his experience Fed officials and staff maintain a 'laser like' focus on the central bank's mission. Williams also told reporters that amid a drop in the dollar's value, its status as the preeminent reserve currency remains unchanged. 'There are a lot of fundamental factors that support the role of the dollar … in global trade and in global financial markets, and that I see is unchanged now.' Sign in to access your portfolio

ESPYS 2025: Saquon Barkley's iconic hurdle wins best play
It was one of the most memorable plays of the 2024 NFL season. It left Pro Bowl wide receivers and a Super Bowl-winning coach in awe. It will grace the cover of the newest Madden NFL video game. Saquon Barkley's hurdle now has another accolade: ESPY Award winner. The annual sports awards show gave Barkley's incredible feat against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9 of last season the "Best Play" award. The Philadelphia Eagles running back flew like an eagle on the play, reverse hurdling over Jaguars cornerback Jarrian Jones to convert a third-and-six in the second quarter. Philadelphia ended up winning the game 28-23 thanks in no small part to Barkley's 199 total yards (159 rushing, 40 receiving) and two touchdowns. It was one of his six games with at least 100 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns but that play stood out to his teammates and coach. "It was the best play I've ever seen," Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said after the game. "What I think is so cool, there's going to be kids all over the country and all over Philadelphia trying to make that play and talking about that play and simulating that play as they play backyard football or peewee football. They ain't going to be able to make it – I believe he's the only one in the world that can do that. I'm speechless. It was unbelievable." "Crazy," Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith said. "I ain't never seen nothing like it." The ESPYS certainly agreed. It was an iconic play in an incredible season for the former No. 2 overall pick. Barkley signed with the Super Bowl champion Eagles last offseason following six years with the New York Giants. He led the league in carries (345) and rushing yards (2,005) and tallied 15 total touchdowns. That was good enough for first-team All-Pro and Offensive Player of the Year honors.
