Malik Beasley would provide much needed depth at shooting guard, and would provide scoring off the bench.

Beasley’s shot selection is good from the perimeter, although at times he will take and make some shots that are more difficult when he needs to take his time. Before the season began, Beasley came into college with an ability as a versatile shooter, and much of his skill was able to translate to the college game, which should translate to the NBA

He scored 23 points (16 shots) against Louisville, and they were the second-best defense in the country according to KenPom.com. Beasley scored 17 points (10 shots) on a great defensive team in Virginia, and 20 points (17 shots) on Iowa.
