The Phoenix Suns have been one of the most aggressive teams in the NBA this offseason.
They wanted to go all-in on winning a championship in the next few seasons.
That is why they went out and traded for Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal.
With Devin Booker and Kevin Durant already on the roster, the Suns opted to add another scoring threat in Beal.
It will be interesting to see how these three can mesh together.
Per Shams Charania via Legion Hoops, the Suns expect Beal to be their starting point guard next season.

Beal has spent his entire career with the Wizards and mostly played as the shooting guard.
So taking over the point guard role will be new to him.
The most assists Beal averaged in a season was 6.6.
But with the scoring options next to him he should have no problem setting a career high in that stat.
The Suns are hoping Beal can take the point guard role and run with it.
If not, they may be in the market for a more traditional point guard.
Anything short of an NBA Finals appearance would be a disappointment for the Suns.
They have struggled with injuries in recent years and now is their chance to show they can stay on the court.
The Suns will be one of the most interesting teams to watch next season.
