Pistons' Beasley being investigated on NBA-related gambling: report
Detroit Pistons guard Malik Beasley is being investigated by the US District Attorney's Office on gambling allegations related to NBA games and prop bets, ESPN reported on Sunday.
Citing unnamed sources, the sports network reported on its website the allegations are from the 2023-24 season when Beasley played for the Milwaukee Bucks.
In that campaign, Beasley made a career-high 77 starts, averaging 11.3 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.4 assists over 79 appearances.
"An investigation is not a charge," Beasley's attorney, Steve Haney, told ESPN. "Malik is afforded the same right of the presumption of innocence as anyone else under the US constitution. As of now he has not been charged with anything."
The 28-year-old veteran of nine NBA seasons is set to become a free agent and was in talks on a new three-year deal worth $42 million with the Pistons. Those negotiations are now on hold, the report said.
Beasley, who signed as a free agent with Detroit last July, averaged 16.3 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.7 assists over a career-high 82 games with the Pistons last season.
Other NBA stops for Beasley, the 19th pick in the 2016 NBA Draft, include Denver, Minnesota, Utah and the Los Angeles Lakers.
