NBA free agency: Malik Beasley, Pistons agree to one-year, $6 million contract, per report
Detroit is reportedly adding another vet
By James Herbert • 1 min readShortly before the end of the moratorium period, free agent Malik Beasley has agreed to a one-year contract with the Detroit Pistons worth at least $6 million, according to The Athletic's Shams Charania.
Beasley, 27, averaged 11.3 points and 3.7 rebounds in 29.6 minutes for the Milwaukee Bucks last season, with a career-high 60.3% true shooting percentage and a career-low 14.2% usage rate. He also made a career-high 42.4% of his catch-and-shoot 3s.
The Pistons will sign Beasley with cap space. Even after doing so, they will have upward of $20 million of space remaining. Earlier this offseason, they agreed to a two-year, $52 million deal with free agent Tobias Harris and traded Quentin Grimes to the Dallas Mavericks for Tim Hardaway Jr. and three second-round picks.
