The Detroit Pistons were prepared to sign Malik Beasley to a three-year, $42 million deal in free agency, but that was before ESPN reported that the U.S. District Attorney's Office was investigating him for gambling allegations on NBA games and prop bets. Beasley is no longer the target of a federal investigation, but he hasn't signed with a team, either.
On Sunday, the Nets waived former first-round pick Kobe Bufkin. Several Pistons fans have called for Detroit to sign Bufkin since it was reported a few days ago that Jaden Ivey will miss at least four weeks after undergoing knee surgery.
