Let’s see if third time’s the charm for Michael Beasley and the Miami Heat.
MIAMI, FL – The Miami HEAT announced today that they have signed forward Michael Beasley to a 10-day contract. Per club policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Beasley most recently played in the Chinese Basketball Association, signing a one-year deal with the Shanghai Sharks on Oct. 9, 2014. He averaged 27.1 points, 10.4 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 1.92 steals in 37 games while shooting 51.3 percent from the floor. His time with the Sharks was highlighted by capturing MVP honors at the 2015 CBA All-Star Game where he came off the bench to score a CBA All-Star Game record 59 points.
Hey, while we’re on the subject of the #2 pick in the 2008 NBA Draft, here’s a really depressing stat.
Life ain’t fair: Michael Beasley has played more NBA games than Derrick Rose.

for the record, Beasley has played in 409 games, while Rose has only played 335. Yep, life definitely ain’t fair.
