John Wall has been a Knicks killer for his entire career. It’s no surprise that his dominance over New York extended to the preseason. Michael Beasley was a victim of Wall’s tremendous first step on Friday night.
Beasley didn’t look like LeBron James when trying to guard Wall on Friday night. The Wizards star blew right by the former No. 2 overall pick and threw down the dunk with his left hand.
Defense is the area where Beasley struggles the most. It’s one of the reasons he struggles to find consistent minutes everywhere he goes.
