On July 26, exactly three years after Beal signed his max deal, the Wizards can officially present a three-year, $111 million extension. The team has indicated it plans to give Beal the offer, and both the player’s camp and the franchise have remained in contact throughout the summer. Around the league, however, the extension is not viewed as a done deal, and there is a growing belief that Beal will not remain in Washington for his entire career.
“He’s out of there,” one well-placed person within the NBA predicted.

That would be a good deal for the Wiz. Locking him up through his age 31 season. Beal would probably be better off playing out his current contract and then doing a 1+1 to get him to 10 seasons and 35%Max eligible.
I don't know that Beal is a 35% max kind of player. And he has a history of knee trouble. If Washington offers him a full maximum extension, he absolutely should take it.
