2015
Due to injuries to his left shoulder, right leg and pelvis, Beal was only able to appear in 55 games (35 starts) for the Wizards during the 2015-16 season. And yet, despite the injuries, Beal had the best shooting season of his young career. The prolific guard shot a career-best 44.9 percent from the field despite attempting 4.9 threes per game. The improved shooting led to Beal averaging a career-high 17.4 points. The St. Louis native started Washington's first six games, but during the Nov. 7 loss at Atlanta, Beal injured his left shoulder, forcing him to miss three straight contests. On Dec. 4, Beal scored a season-high 34 points to go with eight rebounds and five assists during a home win over the Suns. Then, he was held out of a Dec. 11 game at New Orleans due to right leg soreness and ultimately rested for 18 of the team's next 23 games. Beal then came off the bench for most of the following 19 games and averaged 17.1 points per contest over that span. The injuries woes would soon continue during a March 7 loss to Indiana, as Beal injured his pelvis and missed four of the following six games. Beal returned March 19 but sat out the last two games of the season. Washington finished with a 41-41 record and missed the playoffs.

2012
After one season at the University of Florida, Beal was selected with the third overall pick in the 2012 NBA Draft by the Wizards. The 19-year-old rookie joined John Wall to form one of the most dynamic backcourts in the NBA. Beal made his NBA debut on opening night (Oct. 30), posting eight points, three rebounds and three assists in a loss at Cleveland. He was then named Eastern Conference Rookie of the Month for December after averaging 13.4 points, 3.9 rebounds and 3.4 assists over 12 contests. On Jan. 16, the shooting guard posted 26 points and six assists during a loss at Sacramento. Beal appeared in 41 of Washington's first 43 games until he suffered a wrist injury on Jan. 23 in a loss at Utah. Beal tried to play through the injury but ultimately missed five games. He returned Feb. 8 and played in 10 straight contests, a run which included a 28-point effort in a Feb. 11 win at Milwaukee and a 29-point performance during a March 1 loss at New York. An early March ankle injury then cost Beal 19 of the last 24 games. He concluded the season with per-game averages of 13.9 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.6 three-pointers, and as a result, he was named to the 2013 All-Rookie First Team.
