Spurs Work Out Beasley
Michael Beasley has been getting interest from several teams, including the Los Angeles Lakers, but now the San Antonio Spurs have jumped in and worked the free agent out.
Beasley played for the Miami Heat last year, with the team not interested in bringing him back.
Beasley can play at either forward spot.
Sources told Yahoo Sports that Beasley, 25, worked out at the Spurs practice facility this week.
Beasley was chosen by the Heat No. 2 overall in 2008, and averaged almost eight points a game in 15.1 minutes last season.
Steve Kyler of Basketball Insiders was asked by a reader what he thought would happen with Beasley.
“Hard to say whats gonna happen with Mike… he is still getting paid by the Suns so he doesn’t have to take an offer that is not good for him and his camp understand he can’t sign somewhere and get cut or he’s finished. So its not about take the job, its got to represent a real opportunity or it will be a negative,” he said.
“He may wait for an injury or a roster to change by trade or someone getting cut. The Lakers usually keep the final roster spots non-guaranteed and I don’t think Beasley agrees to that unless he’s assured to get a chance and I am not sure the Lakers are willing to do that.”
