Brandon Graham called into the 94WIP Marks & Reese Show on Wednesday, unsolicited, to talk about the Philadelphia 76ers, as rumors swirled regarding Bradley Beal.
BG, as a high draft pick that struggled early in his career, defended Tyrese Maxey and talked about patience.
"I'm hoping the Sixers figure it out, though," Graham told Jon Marks and Ike Reese. "You got a young player in Maxey, but you got to take the emotion out of it. I heard y'all say you can get more picks. I know the cap is low on who you can get. Bradley Beal, you got to think about the age difference between Maxey and him. Maxey, I feel like man, give him a real chance. It's all about the patience people want to have with certain players. Taking the emotion out of it, we going to do what is best for the team as always, we know that as players. Maxey, man, I like him a lot."
Maxey is just 22-years-old and is coming off a season where he averaged a career high 20.3 points, shooting a career-high 43.4-percent from three-point range.
Reports indicate the Wizards are looking to trade Beal and rumors suggest the Sixers may be a suitor.
