Overseas Suitors Emerge for Malik Beasley as Probes Keep NBA Return on Hold

His lawyer calls the unresolved inquiries “investigative purgatory” that keeps him uncleared.

Overview

  • Teams in Europe and China have expressed strong interest, with Chinese clubs prepared to offer lucrative deals that include NBA-out clauses, according to BasketNews reporting relayed by Hoops Rumors.
  • The Chinese Basketball Association season begins December 12, creating a window for Beasley to play abroad while he awaits clarity on his status.
  • Beasley said on Instagram Live that he hopes to rejoin the Detroit Pistons once cleared, noting there is no official offer and that he cannot speak directly with the team until the NBA process concludes.
  • His attorney says Beasley is not barred from signing but remains without clearance or sanctions, a limbo that has already upended a reported three-year, $42 million Pistons agreement.
  • Beasley was not named in the recent Rozier and Billups indictments, yet NBA and federal reviews continue as multiple NBA teams, including Detroit and Cleveland, are monitoring his availability.
