The following afternoon, the franchise waived <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/brooklyn-nets/nets-news-brooklyn-acquires-2026-nba-g-league-draft-picks" rel="noopener">former first-round pick Killian Hayes</a>, Cleveland State product Tristan Enaruna, and undrafted Baylor big man Norchad Omier.

But since he’s still under investigation, the team is unable to do anything. Whenever that investigation concludes, and if the result is in Beasley’s favor, that’s a possibility to monitor.</p><p>Looking at the two-way situation, the Cavs are bringing back Nae’Qwan Tomlin and Luke Travers to split time between the big club and the G League. The other spot can be filled at any time.</p><p>Cleveland is getting set to <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/cleveland-cavaliers/kenny-atkinson-declaring-cavs-championship-ready">open its season in just two days</a>, when it’ll travel to New York for a matchup with the Knicks at Madison Square Garden.

As the <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/nba-stories/nba-rumors-malik-beasley-still-be-charged-crime-gambling-investigation">rumors around Beasley will continue until</a> a decision is made regarding the league, it’s important to know what the investigation is specifically looking into rather than the broad subject of gambling.</p><p>Looking at the initial report from ESPN, Beasley is connected to a federal probe, looking into the 2023-24 season when the guard was with the Milwaukee Bucks. Steve Haney, Beasley’s attorney, spoke to the Detroit Free Press about the situation and labeled it as a <a href="https://www.freep.com/story/sports/nba/pistons/2025/09/14/malik-beasley-detroit-pistons-gambling-investigations-reunion/86135932007/?gnt-cfr=1&amp;gca-cat=p&amp;gca-uir=false&amp;gca-epti=z116639p119750c119750u001739e008700v116639&amp;gca-ft=18&amp;gca-ds=sophi" rel="noopener">“misconduct investigation.”</a></p><p>“They’re conducting an internal investigation, more of a misconduct investigation to make a determination if there are any rules that were violated through the collective bargaining agreement,” Haney said. “That investigation is currently ongoing, and we’re cooperating, providing whatever information we can to hopefully get Malik clear so he can resume his free agency.</p><p>“Certainly, with this news of the investigation, which is not anything that we were responsible for, this leak, essentially, from the Eastern District of New York definitely caused him to lose some opportunity in free agency, and hopefully there’s still a pathway that he can still get back on track for next season,” Haney continued.</p><h2><b>Malik Beasley on wanting to play for the Pistons</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Pistons-Malik-Beasley-.jpg"><figcaption>Rick Osentoski-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>Before the investigation, there had been <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/detroit-pistons/nba-rumors-malik-beasley-teases-free-agency-decision-near">rumors of Beasley and what he would do in free agency</a>, but it does seem like that aspect has been halted with the investigation. Beasley last played with the Detroit Pistons, where he averaged 16.3 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 1.7 assists per game while shooting 43 percent from the field and 41.6 percent from deep.</p><p>Haney would say about his client that “if there’s a pathway,” Beasley wants to be “considered” to play for the Pistons, though he would emphasize that he isn’t the 28-year-old’s agent.</p><p>“I do know that Malik, if there’s a pathway, would like to look at being considered to play for Detroit again next season,” Haney said. “I’m not his agent, though, so I don’t know if there’s still interest there, I don’t know if there’s still money there, what the mutual level of interest there is in him returning to Detroit. I know that he’s got a lot of love for Detroit and would like to, if possible, look at maybe coming back.”</p><p>At any rate, it remains to be seen what happens with Beasley regarding the gambling investigation.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

The reason for this was the federal investigation announced earlier this summer into <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba/detroit-pistons/pistons-rumors-mailk-beasley-ready-sign-42-million-contract-before-gambling-probe">Beasley’s alleged involvement</a> in illegal gambling activities pertaining to the NBA; however, Beasley has since been cleared as the target of that probe, allowing him to re-engage with teams on potentially signing with them.</p><p>While the Pistons surely would love to bring back their leading three-point shooter from a year ago, there are also plenty of other interested parties around the league, and recently, Beasley took to his account on Instagram to <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DOV-0DuiN2r/" rel="noopener">relay a message</a> as his decision nears.</p><p>“step into my world. where we dont listen to the outside noise… here we don’t quit.. where we live to the fullest.. not given af about anything that’s not important to us… year 10 is approaching.. probably the most interesting one of them all.. and the goal remains the same .. be better than last year… my decision is near.”</p><p>Beasley has frequently posted videos of himself on social media this year documenting how he has been staying in shape amid the investigation, and is sure to be able to pick up right where he left off a season ago (well, before the playoff series against the New York Knicks at least).</p><h2><b>A key piece for the Pistons</b></h2><figure><img src="https://wp.clutchpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Pistons-Malik-Beasley.jpg"><figcaption>Sam Navarro-Imagn Images</figcaption></figure><p>The Detroit Pistons have already gone out and added some wing talent this offseason in the event that Beasley was not able to return to the franchise, signing free agents Caris LeVert and Duncan Robinson to give them some more wing shooting and playmaking.</p><p>However, neither of those two players came close to matching the elite three-point production that Beasley had for Detroit last year, setting a franchise record for most shots made from beyond the arc in a single season and playing a huge role in Detroit tripling its win total from the previous year.</p><p>Detroit is set to open up its 2025 season on the road against the Chicago Bulls on October 22.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
