Michael Beasley was a stud in his only season at Kansas State. He was a consensus All-American and was a genuine challenge to Derrick Rose for being the number 1 overall pick. Instead, he was drafted by the Heat with the number 2 pick.

While college ball came easy to Beasley, the NBA was not so simple. Beasley struggled to adapt to the energy required to be a quality player at the next level, especially on the defensive side of the ball. Beasley bounced around the league playing for 8 NBA teams and 3 Chinese teams before last playing in 2019.
Injuries robbed this next star of his potential greatness.
