(Minneapolis, MN) — Minnesota Timberwolves guard Malik Beasley will spend to 120 days in the workhouse when the N-B-A season ends.
Beasley pleaded guilty in December to a felony count of threats of violence. Beasley’s home was incorrectly listed as being on the Parade of Homes last September, and he told the judge he was frustrated, approached a car stopped at the end of his driveway, pointed a gun at the occupants and told them to leave.
Beasley said in court, “I learned my lesson. I was not in my right mind. I’m ready to move on.”
Police seized a large stash of marijuana and other guns at Beasley’s home, but in the plea deal prosecutors agreed to drop a felony fifth-degree drug possession charge.
