It's unclear how the St. Louis native's fandom began, but he's not just jumping on the bandwagon now either. He has tweets dating back to 2012 cheering for the team.

In October, Beal signed a two-year extension with the Wizards, which hopefully means he'll be checking out many more games in the future.
