Tyronn Lue praised the Clippers’ new addition, noting his ability to draw defenders, make plays, and step up defensively against top opponents.
The Los Angeles Clippers made a big move this offseason by adding Bradley Beal to their roster. Head coach Tyronn Lue believes Beal will bring a major boost on both ends of the floor.

“He’s gonna draw two or three guys and he can make a pass... Defensively, he’s always been good. But you gotta challenge him every night,” Lue said on Club Shay Shay.
“If he’s on bad players, he’s not as good. But when he’s guarding a guy that can play, he’s a really good defender,” he added.
Beal arrives in Los Angeles after spending last season with the Phoenix Suns. In 53 games, the 32-year-old guard averaged 17.0 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game.
He shot an efficient 49.7% from the field and 38.6% from beyond the arc, showing that he can still be a reliable scoring option.
