Coach Mike Budenholzer said Friday that Beal will start alongside Tyus Jones and Devin Booker in 2024-25, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Beal will once again be a part of a three-guard lineup in Phoenix, as Jones will replace Grayson Allen as a starter. Beal's 18.2 points per contest in 2023-24 was his lowest mark since 2015-16, but the introduction of a true point guard into the starting unit could help him return to his previous scoring form. However, the 31-year-old will still certainly be behind Kevin Durant and Devin Booker in the offensive pecking order.
