A biography for Bradley Bealhasn’t been written yet.
“I always tell myself, 'Nothing's perfect.'”
“Football was probably my favorite sport growing up. But I didn't have the body.”
“That's what I love so much about my family and friends, man. They continue to support me at the same time they keep me grounded and talk to me like I'm with them.”
“I don't even know how tall I am. I'm hoping 6-4. I'm 6-4, 6-5 on a good day.”
“Nobody can stop me. Plain and simple.”
“I just want to go out there and play basketball, do it at a high level, put us in a position to win.”
“I adjust to who is with me, who I'm playing, the new guys we add.”
“I'm never mad about All-Star. It's guys who get snubbed every year who've proven they could be All-Stars. This league, there's 450 guys, and you're trying to pick 24 out of the group who are having a good year.”
“I mean, defending isolations is easy, but it's hard at the same time. I think I'm a pretty good defender, but when you go against guys that can make tough shots, it makes you feel so bad, like, 'Oh, man, these guys just made a tough shot on me.'”
“My family has always been my circle. I know it might sound kind of weird, but if you know a little bit about me, you'd understand.”
“I'm a pretty physical guy.”
“It just kind of puts you in awe a lot of times. To see fans, and especially kids, really want a bobblehead or really want your jersey, that's something you only dream of. Sometimes we take it for granted, don't understand the importance of it, how a little bobblehead can make somebody's day.”
“My mom is the all-seeing eye in the sky. And she definitely doesn't lie. She knows exactly what I'm doing right or wrong, because she taught me everything I know.”
“I'm humble, and guys always say I act older than what I am so I always keep that mentality and make sure everything is focused and serious.”
“I get to play basketball for a living.”
“Hopefully, I'll be top-five, top-10 in my position to ever play.”
“I'm a silent assassin - I can say that.”
“Basketball is basketball. And whether it's male, or female, or has any other label attached to it... that really doesn't matter to me. It really doesn't matter who's playing. Hoop is hoop. Game is game. If you have it, I'll recognize it. Period.”
“I don't care about stats.”
