In 2013, he joined the Perth Wildcats of the National Basketball League (NBL) in Australia and helped them win a championship in his first season behind his Grand Final MVP performance.

[1] As a freshman at Vanderbilt in 2006–07, Beal finished among the Southeastern Conference's (SEC) freshmen leaders in steals (fourth with 1.06 per game), free throw shooting (fifth at 80.0 percent) and assists (sixth with 1.79).

[14] After returning home to Texas, Beal joined the Austin Toros of the NBA Development League in early December via the available player pool.

[24][25] The BayHawks finished the regular season with a 32–18 record and earned the fifth seed in the playoffs, where they lost 2–1 to the Reno Bighorns in the first round.

In Erie's 114–111 win in game two, Beal recorded 13 points, five assists, three rebounds and a game-high three steals in 20 minutes off the bench.

[41][42][43] On November 1, he hit five three-pointers in the first quarter and finished with a game-high 21 points in an 87–47 win over the Wollongong Hawks, thus helping the Wildcats equal their best start to an NBL campaign at 6–0.

[47] The Wildcats finished the regular season with a league-best 21–7 record and advanced through to the NBL Grand Final, where they faced the Adelaide 36ers.

[52] In June 2014, Beal had a six-game stint in Puerto Rico with Piratas de Quebradillas of the Baloncesto Superior Nacional.

[54] On October 31, Beal scored a game-high 25 points—his second-biggest tally in 37 NBL appearances—to go with four assists and four steals in an 83–64 win over the Wollongong Hawks.

[58][59] Beal was one of the league's top five scorers through the regular season, finishing with 450 points, but at times struggled to adjust after being asked to lift his output in the absence of Ennis.

[61] Coach Trevor Gleeson was confident Beal had settled into his role by late February, with the last three games of the regular season demonstrating how dangerous he could be in the post-season.

[68][69][70] While contracted with the Wildcats for the 2015–16 NBL season, Beal was open to talks if rival clubs wanted to activate a buy-out clause in his deal.

[72][73] Back in Wollongong on November 11, Beal helped the Wildcats defeat the Hawks 99–96 behind a comeback effort capped off by a 31–13 fourth quarter run.

[74] He scored 14 of his then season-high 26 points in the final term,[74][75] including 11 after being crossed-over and having his "ankles broken" by Hawks guard Kevin Lisch with just under seven minutes to play.

[86][87] His 10 three-pointers eclipsed the previous club record of eight set by himself, Ricky Grace, Anthony Stewart and Mike Ellis.

[90] In the Wildcats' following game three days later, Beal recorded 23 points and a career high-tying nine assists in an 87–69 win over the Sydney Kings.

[92] Beal struggled to hit top form during the second half of the season, with his hot hand often deserting him.

[94] Due to suffering from back tightness, Beal was rested for the final road game of the season on February 10.

[95][96] On February 14, he returned from his first missed game in his NBL career to score 15 points in the Wildcats' regular-season finale against the 36ers.

[97][98] The Wildcats finished in second place with an 18–10 record and advanced through to the best-of-three NBL Grand Final series, where they faced the New Zealand Breakers.

[105][106] However, the Wildcats were anxious to add more youth to its roster in the import positions, conscious of an ageing core of local players.

[111] Soon after winning his second championship with the Wildcats, Beal made a return to Belgium to play for Telenet Oostende, joining the team as injury cover for Niels Marnegrave.

[114] In June 2016, Oostende defeated Okapi Aalstar 3–1 in the finals series to claim the Belgian League championship.

[111] In the Bullets' season opener on October 6, Beal scored 14 points in a 72–65 win over the Perth Wildcats in Brisbane.

[126][127] He received a warm reception when he was introduced to the Perth Arena crowd before the match and scored 11 points in the opening term to help spark the onslaught.

[131] Bullets coach Andrej Lemanis said parting ways with Beal was "in the best interests of the team, both in terms of winning games this season and building for the future".

[130] He was touted as the big-game gunner that would lift the Bullets in key moments, but instead had disappearing acts in Brisbane losses.

[132] On February 17, 2017, Beal signed with Ironi Nes Ziona of the Israeli National League for the rest of the 2016–17 season.

[139] On September 18, 2017, Beal signed a one-month contract with Ironi Nes Ziona, now in the Israeli Premier League, as injury cover for Daequan Cook.
