Wizards guard Beal misses practice after concussion

Bradley Beal, who signed a five-year, $128 million maximum contract this summer, missed the Washington Wizards’ practice on Thursday in Richmond, Va., after suffering a mild concussion, coach Scott Brooks said. Beal was injured Wednesday morning during the team’s first of two practices, which were closed to the media. Midway through the session, Beal caught an inadvertent elbow to his head from center Ian Mahinmi, according to Brooks, and was removed from participation. He remained at the team hotel Thursday afternoon while the rest of the team returned to the court.
