🚨 Inside Malik Beasley’s Federal Arraignment: The Details You Didn’t See (full story via @lamag)
🏀 Here are some of the biggest moments from Wednesday’s hearing:
⚖️ Pleaded not guilty to federal charges alleging his role in an NBA sports-betting conspiracy.
💵 Released on a $100,000 bond after prosecutors did not seek detention.
👨👩👦 His parents served as his suretors on the bond package. Both are actors.
📞 His mom testified she calls him about six times a week, and he answers about five. The courtroom laughed, and even the judge appeared amused.
🛂 Beasley must surrender his passport-but the court was told it’s currently with the Detroit IRS. The reason was not discussed in court. The parties have until July 15 to coordinate turning it over.
🏀 The judge appeared to give Beasley a few “extra points” for voluntarily surrendering after knowing about the federal investigation for roughly a year.
📱 Prosecutors allege Beasley accepted bribes to manipulate his own performance in Milwaukee Bucks games so bettors could profit from player prop wagers.
💰 The government claims the alleged scheme generated hundreds of thousands of dollars in illegal bets.
📊 Despite earning nearly $60 million during his NBA career, Beasley was released on the relatively modest bond package of $100k.
🏀 During the 2024-25 season, Beasley set a Detroit Pistons franchise record with 319 three-pointers in a single season.
⏰ Next court date: August 6 at noon in Brooklyn federal court.
If convicted, Beasley faces up to 20 years in prison on the wire fraud and money laundering conspiracy charges, plus up to five years on the sports bribery charge. #malikbeasley
