5 years agoWashington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal will miss Monday’s contest versus the Boston Celtics due to a leg ailment. Beal will now be sidelined for the third straight game and for the fifth time in the team’s last six outings. Jordan McRae figures to continue being the primary beneficiary of Beal’s absence, although the rest of the active Wizards backcourt members will have to be relied upon to pick up the slack. Entering the night as the league’s fifth leading scorer at 27.8 points per game, Beal is still on pace to be named an All-Star for the third straight season, with his next chance of getting back on the floor coming Wednesday against the Magic.--Jesse Borek
