Malik Beasley: Someone is pointing fingers at me, I want to prove that I belong to this alliance again

Malik Beasley started live broadcast on Snapchat and talked about his performance. Beasley said: "Someone in the media said something outrageous, and some people pointed at me. I told you, I was holding my heart and was ready to defeat everyone in front of me. I want to prove that I belong to this league again."

Previously, there was a report that the U.S. District Attorney's Office was investigating Beasley, and the relevant departments accused him of suspected gambling related to NBA game betting. The game investigated occurred in the 2023-24 season, when he played for the Bucks. Before this happened, the Pistons were seriously discussing a three-year, $42 million contract extension with Beasley, but it has been suspended.

Last season, Beasley played 82 games, averaging 27.8 minutes per game, and averaged 16.3 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.9 steals, and 0.1 blocks per game, shooting percentage of 43.0%, three-point shooting percentage of 41.6%, and free throw shooting percentage of 67.9%. He scored 319 three-pointers and became the only three players who made 300+ three-pointers last season with Edwards (320) and Curry (311).
