Beal (rest) will not play Saturday against the Bucks, Andrew Gruman of Fox Sports Wisconsin reports.

Analysis:

The Wizards said earlier Saturday that Beal could be rested, though they did not come to an official decision until a little more than an hour before tipoff. Beal has topped 30 minutes in all three games since returning from a stress reaction injury in his leg, so it's likely that the team is simply being cautious with his workload. Expect Garrett Temple to enter the lineup in Beal's place.
