5 Teams that could poach Malik Beasley from the Milwaukee Bucks in free agency

Orlando Magic
The final team Iko reports has interest in Beasley is the Orlando Magic, who will be among the more intriguing teams to keep an eye on in free agency.
After making it back to the postseason and nearly making it out of the first round, the Magic will have money to spend to further improve their contending odds. It wouldn't be surprising if a good chunk of that money went to perimeter shooters, as the Magic ranked just 24th in 3-point percentage during the regular season and 14th out of 16 teams in the playoffs.
Insert Malik Beasley, who could be a great addition to address their shooting woes, especially as a kick-out guy for Orlando's Paolo Banchero. Like the Bucks have done with Giannis Antetokounmpo over the years, the Magic should surround their star player with perimeter threats to give him more room to operate offensively. For that reason, it's easy to see why they have interest in him.
If the Magic really like Beasley or strike out on their other top free-agent targets, they will have the financial resources to make him a strong offer. With their spending money and rumored interest in the guard, it wouldn't be far-fetched to categorize them as the most likely team to snatch up Beasley.
