Former NBA player Malik Beasley has agreed to plead guilty in his federal sports betting case, his attorney, Steve Haney, told ESPN on Tuesday.
Beasley, who played nine seasons in the NBA, is scheduled to change his plea at a Dec. 9 hearing in New York. He initially pleaded not guilty to four federal charges: conspiracy to commit wire fraud, bribery in sporting contests, honest services wire fraud conspiracy and conspiracy to commit money laundering.
Haney told ESPN over the weekend that his client was in talks with prosecutors about a potential plea agreement and said Tuesday that a deal had been reached.
