LAJETHRO JENKINS: I don't know if I've ever seen you respond to a player like you did Bazemore yesterday, or last night.

BRADLEY BEAL: For me, it was nothing against Steph. I'm going to just nip that now. To me, it was about-- I'm not sitting here debating about whose side you choose. Obviously, you should be on your teammate's side, but just keep it that. Keep it hoops. Don't bring my injury into it or me into it. My goals and why I go hoop and what I'm focused on are totally different. I can care less about people saying, Oh it's a close race. I don't really care about that.

I'm here to hoop. Everybody knows I can score. I've been doing this for the last couple of years, so It's nothing new. I'm not chasing after nothing. So for me, I just want to keep it that. Just keep it hoops. Stay over there. Like I didn't say anything. I didn't go out of my way to do anything. So that's all my point was.
