© Tommy Gilligan-USA TODAY Sports Both the NBA and the NFL seem to take the same cues when a player performs exceptionally well.

The NBA has apparently taken note of the stellar recent performance from Washington Wizards star guard Bradley Beal.

Beal just became the first player in the NBA to drop 50-plus points on consecutive nights since Kobe Bryant back in 2007.

What did Beal get as a reward? According to one of the game’s most-underrated players, a drug test from the Association.

“I guess the league don’t want me to score 50. I had a drug test today.” Bradley Beal said he hadn’t seen a team guard him with a box-and-one since high school. Said he told Garrett Temple, “I can’t believe you guys are in this damn box-and-one.” pic.twitter.com/lpK28dbgbG — Fred Katz (@FredKatz) February 27, 2020

That’s so on brand for the NBA.

In addition to joining Bryant in elite company, Beal became the first player to ever drop 50-plus points in two consecutive games that his team lost. Talk about craziness.

Beal, 26, is averaging 30.1 points and 6.0 assists per game this season.
