2 cuts, 7 base salaries, 9 teams in 10 years! Single-handedly hit KD, why the genius list has no ball to play

According to journalist Shams Charania, former NBA leader Michael Beasley, who is already 32 years old, will play in the summer league for the Blazers in the new season.

The last time he played for an NBA team was in the 18-19 season.

Beasley, who was playing for the Lakers at the time, was able to cut down 7 points and 2.3 rebounds with an average of only 10.7 minutes of playing time, which was quite efficient.

Unfortunately, due to the Lakers' chaotic locker room conditions and his own personality reasons, he was eventually traded by the team, and he did not play any NBA games for any team since.

From the proud son of heaven when he debuted, to now having to run to play in the summer league at the age of 32, Beasley's bumpy career can only be said to be self-inflicted.

In just 10 years, he has changed a total of 9 teams, namely: Heat → Timberwolves→ Suns → return to the Heat→ Rockets→ Bucks→ Knicks→ Lakers → Clippers.

If you count Guangdong and the Nets (after the official announcement, the contract was cancelled due to the diagnosis of the new crown), it is 11 teams.

In these 10 seasons, Beasley has only been able to get a basic salary for 7 seasons, namely: Heat (103W, 33W), Suns (78W), Rockets (31W), Bucks (140W), Suns (78W), Knicks (147W).

On the other hand, Wei Shao and Le Fu of the same year, the maximum salary has been all the way to the present.

It is worth mentioning that Beasley has also been laid off by the Sun and Clippers.

The same high starting point, different fates, is simply unbearable.

As Durant once admitted that private singles can always blow his own genius list, Beasley really can't play the NBA now?

If you only look at the offense, you can actually play the role of a bench bandit.

A rich and diverse arsenal of offensive weapons, individual play styles that can be inside and outside, and an undifferentiated head-to-head ability.

In the 609 regular season games he played, he scored 12.4 points on average with 22.8 points in playing time, and his shooting percentage has been stable at more than 45% all year round, beasley can be called an offensive kaleidoscope.

However, if you want to mix in the NBA, you can't just have offense, bad defense, a troublesome personality, and a ball quotient who doesn't get into the flow, which is the main reason why Biye didn't play in the NBA at the age of 29.

In addition, although Beasley has a strong offensive firepower, most of his scores come from singles with the ball, and the ball will not come out of his hands.

The role player's way of playing is actually very harmful to the team.

Coaches who may be messing up teams may be okay with it, but playoff teams certainly can't tolerate this behavior.

Reference Harrell, sold by the Clippers, and this year was the Lakers' consecutive DNP.

This time representing the Trail Blazers in the summer league, whether you can get the opportunity to return to the NBA depends on Beasley's own play.
