The NBA s deadbeat! The scorer is forced to retire by 16 points per game? Suspected of betting on football and still has 8 million in debt

7:18pm, 2 July 2025【Basketball】

On July 2, since the free market opened, many players have won their favorite big contracts, such as Alexander signed a four-year, 285 million contract, Jalen Jackson signed a five-year, 240 million contract, Turner also received a four-year, 107 million contract for the Bucks, and even blue-collar player Boltel won the four-year, 104 million contract given by the Raptors, which has become a winner in life, but not all players have been smooth sailing.

Since the beginning of the offseason, Josh Giddy, Kumingga and Grimes have three players who have won big contracts. As a result, they have only received a qualification quote. The so-called qualification quote is that if other teams can still quote, the home team can choose to match or choose to mismatch. If the quote does not match, the team will lose the player. As of now, these three may eventually leave the team with one year's qualification contract.

But they don't have to be discouraged. After all, after playing this year's qualification contract, they can leave as free agents, and no one can restrict them anymore. Compared to Beasley, these three are pretty good, and Beasley is now in trouble off the court. He was caught in a turmoil in football betting before, and many fans probably heard about it. The FBI has begun an investigation into him because he is suspected of participating in gambling activities in NBA games.

However, this is not the only trouble for Beasley now. According to a reporter from the Detroit News, Beasley's alleged gambling was not the only trouble he caused. After the investigation, the relevant departments found that Beasley's financial situation in the past few years was a mess. A company that once asked Beasley to be sentenced to $2.25 million for breach of contract, a company that provides loan services to athletes sued Beasley for owing 5.8 million by March, and he also defaulted on rent, the haircut team and the dentist all had more than $20,000 in debt.

What do you want to say when you see this? A top NBA shooter, but he owed so much money, and in order to get a loan, he used his NBA contract as a guarantee. Originally, Beasley could have signed a three-year, 42 million contract with the Pistons this summer, but because of the bet, the Pistons gave up the contract renewal. If his bet on the bet on the ball, he is likely to be unable to return to the league.

Average 16.3 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 0.9 steals per game, with a three-point shooting percentage of 41.6%, and can make 3.9 three-pointers per game. Such performance is definitely worth a contract with an annual salary of 10 million yuan. It is not an exaggeration to describe him as playing a good hand of cards so badly. Beasley averaged 11 points per game in the third year of his career, and then averaged 20 points per game with the Timberwolves, so he also got a big contract given by the Timberwolves.

After gaining a certain reputation, Beasley did not continue to improve himself, but began to get flirted with. He secretly cheated on Pippen's ex-wife Larsa on his back, and later he was in the same team with Pippen's son. He was quite embarrassed because he was addicted to the red and green wine off the court, and his shooting ability also declined sharply. He performed poorly in the Lakers, so the Lakers gave up on him after only one year.

In the 23-year offseason, he only got a basic salary contract with the Bucks. Fortunately, Beasley seized the opportunity this season and proved himself, which led him to win a one-year, 6 million contract last summer and join the Pistons. During his time with the Pistons, Beasley played as a top scorer and almost won the Super Sixth Man. However, although he has re-proven his skills, his character seems to have not changed at all.

It is the second day since the free market started. There are not many high-quality resources in the league. Scorers like Billis will be signed long ago, but his suspected bets and deadbeat behavior have made many teams lose interest in him. The Pistons had planned to wait for him before. As a result, after today's debt news came out, the Pistons directly signed Dunro to replace Beasley's position and gave him a three-year, 48 million contract.

It can be expected that he should have no money now. After all, if he has money, he would not do the job of a deadbeat. This guy is obviously a person who can spend money on his own, and even overspending. If Beasley has no ball to play due to betting on football, it can be expected that he may have to go to overseas leagues in the next career. In the NBA, especially the top leaders of the league, what they dislike most is that players are suspected of betting on football because they can operate games, which makes NBA fairness a joke.

There was a player who was similar to his situation before. He was Michael Porter's younger brother Jon Tayport. Because he was confirmed to bet, he was suspended for life by the NBA. With such marginal rotation as Jon Tayport, he could not earn much money. It is acceptable for him to lose his nature. Beasley should not have done this! Having said that, what do you want to say about Beasley now? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
