Malik Beasley's basketball future is marred by uncertainty in the midst of a reported federal probe into the free agent's alleged involvement in gambling tied to NBA games and prop bets.

Beasley, who spent the 2024-25 NBA season with the Detroit Pistons, was residing in downtown Detroit — at least until recently. An eviction order was filed against the 28-year-old roughly two months after the 28-year-old was sued. The lawsuit stated that Beasley failed to make rental payments to the landlord.

This is not the first time action has been taken against Beasley amid a rental payment dispute. He faced two lawsuits for allegedly missing payments totaling $21,500 for his unit located in a downtown building owned by Bedrock Detroit — a company controlled by Cleveland Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert.

A default judgment was issued after the second of the suits received no response.

Beasley's reps were believed to have been in talks with the Pistons about a potential multi-year contract before news of the federal gambling probe surfaced, according to multiple reports.
