Malik Beasley No Longer Target in Federal Gambling Probe, Remains Free Agent

NBA player Malik Beasley is no longer a target in a federal gambling investigation by the Eastern District of New York, his attorneys confirmed to ESPN. This development comes months after the probe began in June, which involved allegations of betting on NBA games and prop bets during the 2023-24 season. Despite being cleared, the 28-year-old guard remains an NBA free agent, though he previously had significant contract discussions with the Detroit Pistons for a three-year, $42-million deal before the investigation became public. Several teams are reportedly maintaining contact with Beasley's representation as he seeks a new contract.
