Wolves guard Beasley sentenced to 120 days of jail after arrest, could serve after NBA season

Beasley was facing felony controlled substance/narcotics and felony receiving/concealing stolen property charges.

A Minnesota judge sentenced Timberwolves guard Malik Beasley to 120 days in jail to be served after the NBA season after he pleaded guilty to one felony count of threats of violence.

Beasley’s attorney, Steven Haney, told ESPN that Beasley will be part of a work release program and could potentially serve the sentence through home confinement. The felony charge might be reduced to a misdemeanor at the end of his probation, according to Haney. Under a plea deal, prosecutors agreed to drop felony drug charges against Beasley.

“We are very pleased with this outcome that will allow Malik to continue working on becoming a better person and making better choices,” Haney said in a statement.
