The Golden State Warriors appear destined to sign Al Horford using the Mid-Level Exception, but a new Malik Beasley update should have them reconsidering their plans. Up to this point, Beasley has been passed over by teams in free agency due to an investigation into allegations that he was involved in gambling on NBA games.
With Beasley reportedly cleared of any wrongdoing, he will suddenly hit the open market without the shadow of a potential suspension hanging over his head.
Beasley's attorneys told ESPN that they had extensive conversations and meetings with the Eastern District of New York and were informed Beasley is not being considered the target after allegations regarding gambling on NBA games and prop bets during the 2023-24 season.
