Financial terms were not disclosed by the team
for Beasley, who will have to serve a five-game suspension for
violating the league's anti-drug policy last April.
Beasley, 31, played 26 games (two starts) for the Los Angeles
Lakers last season, averaging 7.0 points and 2.3 rebounds,
before being traded with Ivica Zubac to the Los Angeles Clippers
for Mike Muscala on Feb. 7. The Clippers waived him two days
later, and Beasley finished the season playing in China.
Beasley has played for seven NBA teams in 11 seasons since the
Miami Heat selected him with the No. 2 overall pick in the 2008
NBA Draft out of Kansas State. He has averaged 12.4 points and
4.7 rebounds in 609 career games (238 starts).
Brooklyn (30-34) resides in seventh place in the Eastern
Conference and is solidly positioned for one of the conference's
eight playoff spots. The Nets have eight games remaining and are
a half-game ahead of eighth-place Orlando (30-35) and six ahead
of the ninth-place Washington Wizards (24-40).
