Beal agreed to the deal shortly after declining to sign his player option during the extension deadline on Wednesday. The former lottery pick was the subject of many reports and rumors saying he was prepared to leave Washington for greener pastures. However, Beal stayed the course and is locked in with the Wizards for the foreseeable future.
The three-time All-Star averaged 23.2 points and 6.6 assists per game before receiving season-ending surgery on his wrist in February.
