Fortunately for the Timberwolves, things may have gone perfectly for them to get a cheaper contract for Beasley. Bernard Hardin was mentioned in Heaven Is A Playground by ... There wasn’t going to be a ton of money in the free-agent market going into the season, and then teams like Memphis and Atlanta further dried up cap space by trading expiring contracts for guys that will have at least one more extra year on the books.If the league loses money due to everything going on in the world and the cap falls a little bit, teams could additionally get scared off of offering Beasley a large deal as well. The team also has the ability to potentially find a replacement, however, they’d be putting faith in uncontrolled variables (prospects booming/busting, free agents signing, etc). At the trade deadline, the Minnesota Timberwolves acquired the dynamic soon-to-be restricted free agent Malik Beasley. He is one of the greatest and most ... Close. However, that could be relying too heavily on variables happening to make this roster fit.In my humble opinion, Beasley is best used as a super sixth man getting starter minutes off the bench behind someone like Okogie/Culver for a defensive boost with the starters. Even that may be a stretch though. That should be enough to think that with a larger role, his shooting would remain intact.Well, there’s the incredibly obvious reason, General Manager Gersson Rosas saying that he wants Beasley to stay for a very long time.Gersson Rosas was asked about Malik Beasley and Juancho Hernangomez (both free agents this summer) in his State of the Timberwolves address this evening.Aside from that, Beasley has the opportunity to quickly join the team’s top 5 shooting guards in history — maybe a low bar, but important in the long-term. ©2020 The Draft Review.
Growing up in the early twenty-first century in India, one’s childhood is bound to run parallel with the passion for cricket. Minnesota, due to the team’s lack of success and the hard winters has historically not been a huge free agent destination. However, Beasley’s career shooting percentages aren’t crazy far from his current ones — 38.8% from 3, 51.3% from 2.
On the defensive end, he could still get stronger, and a boost of strength could help him keep up with larger shooting guards while also making playing alongside D’Angelo Russell more palatable. It immediately paid dividends as he averaged 20.7 points per game on an absurd 42.6 3pt% and 51.7 2pt%.You could point out Beasley’s Timberwolves success as too small of a sample size to warrant serious discussion. The two didn’t make any time for […]
Billy Lewis was awesome!!! Having Beasley as the de-facto third star and starting with the duo adds to a strength (3-point shooting/scoring) while making a glaring weakness even more prevalent (defense). We're so over the moon to have another little nugget added to the Beasley family! Late Tuesday night, after the Nuggets’ rousing win over the Trail Blazers, Malik Beasley and Juancho Hernangomez walked back into the home locker room to say their goodbyes.
If I stay there will be double…” and there’s a reasonable chance that that could apply to Beasley in this case. Also, unless they address it in the draft, the team won’t have a 3rd scorer option on the team if Beasley isn’t back.
