Reese, Kmac, Pam and Alex discuss Malik Beasley being under investigation.
The U.S. District Attorney is reportedly investigating Malik Beasley over alleged gambling on NBA games during the 2023‑24 season. However, no charges have been filed yet, and his attorney emphasizes that Beasley is presumed innocent until proven otherwise. Transactions around his contract are reportedly paused pending clarity on this issue.
Beasley is currently an unrestricted free agent and is the 3rd NBA player in the last year (Terry Rozier, Jontay Porter) to get caught up in gambling allegations and investigations. Beasley, fresh off a strong season with the Detroit Pistons, was reportedly in discussions for a 3‑year, $42 M deal with Detroit. Those talks have been delayed amid the inquiry, and a significant penalty—including a ban—is a possibility if wrongdoing is proven. Why do athletes keep getting caught up with gambling?
