The Worst of Beasley
Beasley’s getting buckets mindset was only a positive when his shot was on. When it wasn’t he could hurt the Bucks by taking shots that should’ve gone to somebody else on the team. Beasley shot 40 percent or lower from the field 18 times in his 56 games this season.
For every steal and block Beasley recorded, it was likely he missed an assignment or found himself out of position on defense. The only rotation player who the Bucks had a worse defense with was Jabari Parker, as Milwaukee gave up 108.5 points per 100 possession with Beas on the floor.
In addition, his three-point shooting is not as proficient as the percentage would make it seem. Beasley shot just 1.7 threes per game, and only once all season made more than one three in a single game. That game, he made two of them.
One nice part of Beasley’s season with the Bucks is that nothing happened off of the court that ended up here in this section. One part of Beas’ reputation, fair or not, is that he would be a distraction to the Young Bucks. That definitely did not seem to be the case in his lone Milwaukee season.
