The Los Angeles Clippers are emerging as the favorite to land Bradley Beal once the guard is expected to hit free agency, according to two reports Tuesday.

As Bradley Beal looks to get a contract buyout from the Phoenix Suns, a favorite to land him on the free agent market reportedly has emerged.

The Clippers can offer Beal up to $5.3 million in salary this upcoming season. Los Angeles used most of its non-taxpayer mid-level exception to sign center Brook Lopez. The Clippers also made a trade that saw Norman Powell go to the Miami Heat and John Collins come to Los Angeles in a three-deal deal with the Utah Jazz.
