The former Seminole is onto his sixth NBA team in his career heading into his ninth season
With all of the former Seminoles getting contract extensions this offseason to stay with their current teams, we finally have one changing teams.contract to sign with the Detroit Pistons. This is already the sixth team in his career going into his ninth season and he will be one of the more experienced players on the roster.Beasley played for the Milwaukee Bucks on a minimum contract last season, averaging 11.3 PPG while shooting 41.3% from three-point range.
As mentioned, this is Beasley's sixth stop in his NBA career. He was drafted by the Denver Nuggets in 2016 and has since played for the Minnesota Timberwolves, Utah Jazz, LA Lakers, and the Bucks. Some of the names he's been involved in trades with in his career are pretty spectacular to look back on: from Russell Westbrook, Rudy Gobert, Arron Afflalo, to even Clint Capela.
Detroit has had a unique offseason as they try to turn around from their fifth straight horrendous season. They've traded for Tim Hardaway Jr. and signed Tobias Harris to give them some veteran shooting presences and Beasley should only add to that. Most of Detroit's younger players are slashing scorers and they needed to add some spacing.
Beasley, a former five-star prospect from Alpharetta, Georgia, spent one year at Florida State before declaring for the NBA Draft. His 2015 recruiting class, alongside Dwayne Bacon, Terance Mann, and Christ Koumadje, was one of the turning points of the program before they had their biggest stretch of success as a program in the latter years of the 2010s. He averaged 15.6 PPG and 5.3 RPG in his lone season in Tallahassee.
