The Pistons offered a lot of insight on media day, with players and personnel covering a wide variety of topics. They delved into individual player progressions, the team’s ambitions and reflections on last season. But a major omission was Malik Beasley’s status and the Pistons’ plans around him.
News has died down on the Malik Beasley front
The entire summer has been a very confusing one for Pistons fans wondering about Malik Beasley. After initially being in line for a multi-year deal from the Pistons, Beasley got caught up in a federal investigation regarding sports gambling. These serious allegations naturally paused the Pistons’ contract negotiations with him at the time.
