Just like Kawhi Leonard, Bradley Beal is a ‘fun guy' too. The Washington Wizards superstar was surprisingly in a great mood after the Wizards lost another heartbreaker on Wednesday night against the Bucks. Beal exploded for 42 points and was apparently having a blast amid the 135-134 loss.
“I had fun,” Beal said after the game (via Fred Katz of The Athletic). “I enjoy the game, enjoy being who I am, enjoy being here.”

If Beal just put out that infamous Kawhi laugh then he's definitely taking home the ‘Fun Guy of the Year Award'.
Enjoyment aside, Beal was all business on the floor against Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Bucks. Beal exploded for 11 fourth-quarter points to try and propel the Wizards to a comeback. He drained two big threes in the game's final minutes but the Wizards ended up a few inches away from stealing an important road victory against one of the East's top contenders.




Beal though seemed unbothered by the loss. He was in high spirits after the game and took the pun gun out of its holster to honor his teammate, Raul Neto.
“I call him Wolf Man. His name sounds like a wolf, Raul. We howl all night.” Beal added.

Beal and the Wizards would need all this good juju as they continue their road trip on Thursday to Tampa Bay and face the Toronto Raptors. With just six games to go, the Wizards must come together and finish the regular season strong if they want to end their two-year hiatus from the playoffs.
