Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal may have some beef with ESPN's Zach Lowe.
During the NBA hiatus, Beal went on Lowe's podcast and was told by the ESPN writer that he had the Wizards star making one of his three All-NBA teams.
However, Lowe released his All-NBA votes on Tuesday and Beal wasn't on his list. That caused Beal and his girlfriend to call out Lowe on Twitter:
Man lied right to my FACE! Smh

Let’s see… y’all complain at players leaving and joining “superteams” … then turn around and penalize a player for staying loyal to a city and an organization going thru a rebuild. Oh the hypocrisy.

Beal had a terrific statistical season for the Wizards. He averaged 30.5 points, 4.2 rebounds and 6.1 assists in 57 starts while shooting 45.5 percent from the field, 35.3 percent from beyond the arc and 84.2 percent from the free-throw line before the season was suspended in March.
Unfortunately for Beal, the Wizards won only 20 games in 2019-20 with Beal in the lineup. The two-time All-Star was second in the NBA in scoring behind only Houston Rockets superstar James Harden, who has led the league in points per game three consecutive seasons.
If Beal does miss out on an All-NBA spot, he would have the third-highest scoring average in NBA history for a player who didn't make All-NBA. To make matters even worse, Beal didn't even make the 2020 All-Star Game despite being one of the best players in the NBA.
The Wizards signed Beal to an extension before the 2019-20 season started, so making an All-NBA team would not have an effect on Beal's contract.
