The world of professional sports is no stranger to controversy, and the latest involves former Detroit Pistons guard Malik Beasley, who is currently under federal investigation for alleged gambling misconduct dating back to his tenure with the Milwaukee Bucks. This investigation centers on a notable spike in bets placed during a Bucks game against the Portland Trail Blazers on January 31, 2024.

While Beasley has not been charged with any crime, the scrutiny is intense, particularly as it surfaces amidst reports that the Pistons were blindsided by the investigation while preparing to extend a lucrative three-year, $42 million contract offer to him. In a recent episode of 'Pablo Torre Finds Out,' host Pablo Torre, alongside NBA analyst Tom Haberstroh and former executive Amin Elhassan, examined the implications of this scandal. They also touched upon related incidents involving players like Jontay Porter and Terry Rozier, as well as insights from notable personalities such as Denzel Washington and Carmelo Anthony. The episode analyzes Beasley's performance under pressure, adding depth to the narrative.
