As the most competitive business league in the world, every player can get very generous salary returns as long as he performs well. But in the early stage, I played basketball in detail. For those players who have problems outside the court, regardless of their size, they will cut off contact with them in one-size-fits-all manner.

And during this offseason, another Pistons' Malik Beasley got into big trouble. It is reported that relevant departments said that Beasley may have participated in off-court betting before, and the specific content is related to NBA games and props.

And the news may cause Beasley to lose a contract of $42 million directly. If this is true, perhaps his career loss of more than $100 million may be.

Beasley, who became a free agent last summer, received a $6 million mini middle class contract for the Pistons. When Ivy was absent due to injury, Beasley seized the opportunity to successfully play. He attended all 82 games in the regular season, averaged 16.3 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game, shooting percentage of 43% and three-point shooting percentage reached 41.6%.

There was news that if Beasley becomes a free agent, many teams including the Rockets, Nets, Timberwolves and other teams will be interested in signing contracts with him. The Pistons are even negotiating a three-year, $42 million contract extension with him. However, after being investigated by the league, all contract renewal negotiations will be stopped until it can be proved that Beasley has nothing to do with the matter.

Before this, this kind of situation occurred in the league. The last player involved in the same incident was Rozier. However, after the league investigation, it was proved that Rozier did not participate and escaped. Even so, many fans always have to "clear" Rozier's incredible bad performance. This guy has nothing to do, it's just too bad.

Another one was investigated by the league to confirm the matter. Jontai Porter, the younger brother of current Nuggets player Michael Porter, entered the league as a undrafted draft and accepted a three-year, $6 million non-guaranteed contract for the Grizzlies. He also played for the Toronto Raptors in the 23-24 season, but he has been suspended for life after an off-court incident.

Therefore, these players who play in the NBA must always maintain their own image. Sometimes they may lose tens of millions or even over 100 million US dollars if they are not careful. Just like Miles Bridges, a Hornets player, entered the league with 12th pick in the first round in 2018. In his fourth season of his career, he played very beautiful data and got a record average of 20.2 points, 7 rebounds, and 3.8 assists per game.

At the time, people had already stated that Bridges could receive a contract renewal with an average salary of $25-30 million and a total value of $125-150 million. But in the offseason when he was preparing to renew his contract, he was investigated by the league for violent behavior against his girlfriend off the court. In the end, in the 22-23 season, Bridges didn't play a single game, so the big contract was naturally ruined. It was not until the 23-24 season that he signed a one-year, $7.9 million contract with the Hornets and returned to the league. Last summer, Bridges finally got a three-year, $75 million contract, but he should have been able to get this contract two years ago.

Kevin Porter Jr., who also had similar experiences with Bridges. He also had the same incident as Bridges. In the last season of the Rockets, Kevin Porter averaged 19.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1 steal, which also allowed him to obtain a four-year, $82.5 million contract from the Rockets. However, this contract is only guaranteed for the first year, but after the incident, the Rockets directly traded Porter Jr. to the Thunder, and was immediately cut off by the Thunder.

Potter, who did not return to the league until last year, could only get a basic salary of $2 million, and his incident also caused him to lose more than $60 million. So although NBA players have very generous salaries, it is true that if you want to learn how to play, you will be a good person first. What other NBA serious punishment behaviors do you know?
