Wolves' Malik Beasley starts serving sentence in Wright County jail

Timberwolves guard Malik Beasley reported to Wright County jail this week to start serving his sentence that stems from his guilty plea to threats of violence in December.

While his guilty plea carried a 120-day sentence, the Wright County census said he'll be released on August 17, which would be 78 days after he was booked on Tuesday. That would include time off for good behavior.

The judge allowed Beasley to wait to serve his sentence until after the Timberwolves regular season concluded — his guilty plea also led the judge to drop a felony drug possession charge.
