Bradley Beal is going to team up with Russell Westbrook this season to lead the Washington Wizards back to the playoffs.
Speaking to reporters Friday, Beal said he believes there is a “false narrative” around Westbrook that has been built up over the years.

“He can pass the hell out of the ball…don’t want to compare him and John but he’s very fast…I feel like there is always a false narrative on Russ.. playing with him for the past week hasn’t been too big of adjustment. It’s smooth sailing.”
The Wizards will be Westbrook’s third team in three years. Oklahoma City traded him to the Houston Rockets prior to last season.
The former MVP averaged 27.2 points per game and shot a career-high 47.2 percent from the field with the Rockets last season.
