In my logic, they need to move Beal first.

For what?

Another bad, underperforming contract? Or maybe try to attach something of value, in order to get back a somewhat less bad contract?

If they could just tear up his contract and release him today, I think they’d be overjoyed.

It just sucks to overpay a “star” player. Totally ties your hands.

I think they hold onto him until the contract is over, and try to get some usable play out of him in the meantime. Similar to Deandre Ayton.
