Revelation that Malik Beasley will come to the CBA to play

Recently, the NBA has been involved in a "gambling scandal." Trail Blazers head coach Billups was found out and resigned. There are also some players who have been investigated by the NBA for gambling, such as Malik Beasley, a player who can start in the NBA, and may come to play in the CBA next.

According to European media reports, if Beasley cannot be cleared as soon as possible, the 28-year-old guard may choose to go to the Chinese League as a short-term option to maintain competitive status and prepare for a possible return to the NBA. Interest from China is particularly strong because CBA teams offer lucrative, flexible contract structures with NBA opt-out clauses, which would be an attractive option for Beasley to stay in game shape while giving him a chance to return to the NBA with permission from the league.

Malik Beasley, 1.93 meters tall, 28 years old this year, the 19th pick in the first round of 2016, has played for the Nuggets, Timberwolves, Jazz, Lakers, Bucks, Pistons and other teams in his career. Beasley is very capable, but his energy does not seem to be on basketball. He is deeply involved in gambling scandals and is a thorny player. In fact, many NBA teams want to sign Beasley. The general manager of the Pistons expressed the hope that Beasley will be lifted from the investigation as soon as possible. Now the NBA has very strict management of gambling, and the investigation into Beasley has not yet ended. If it is really confirmed, Beasley may not be able to return to the NBA for a long time in the future. Originally, Beasley had a bright future, and with his ability, he could get an annual salary of tens of millions of dollars in the NBA.

Can Beasley play in the CBA with peace of mind?

There are currently CBA clubs interested in Beasley. Beasley played 82 regular season games with the Pistons last season, averaging 27.8 minutes per game, scoring 16.3 points, averaging 3.9 three-pointers per game, and a three-point shooting rate of 41.6%. He is one of the best shooters in the CBA. If such an NBA player at his peak comes to the CBA, he will really be killed indiscriminately.

However, whether Beasley can play in the CBA with peace of mind is another matter! During the NBA lockout, many NBA stars came to the CBA to make money by playing, such as JR Smith! He played casually in the CBA, but had a very poor professional attitude, did not train, had conflicts with teammates and coaches, etc., and was eventually terminated. Beasley is also a prickly player with a strong personality. He came to the CBA to make money and to maintain his condition so that he can return to the NBA. If Beasley can play with peace of mind, he can become the top small foreign aid and can change the game on his own.
