For all of Beal’s community work, personality and talent, he is the target of Wizards’ fans ire, not adoration. “I’m at peace with how the year went, I’m not at peace with how we are as a team,” the star guard says in his final interview of the season.
Want to get the man a little riled up? Take him back to those days. Prod him a bit after the Wizards’ second 35-47 season in a row.

There were seven other players in the NBA this season who had spent at least 10 years with their current franchise: Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, Udonis Haslem, Khris Middleton, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard.
