As he scanned the box score, Detroit Pistons guard Malik Beasley smiled.
He focused on a number that played a major factor in the Pistons’ 117-114 win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday at Crypto.com Arena. Beasley looked satisfied over scoring 21 points off the bench while maintaining his efficiency from the field (8-for-15) and from 3-point range (5-for-10).
“50!” Beasley said with a grin. Yet, Beasley does not play just to produce numbers. He helped the Pistons (13-17) overcome a 10-point deficit against the Lakers (16-13) and prevail in crunch time in other ways, too. Beasley chastised Detroit guard Cade Cunningham for committing five turnovers. Beasley also encouraged his teammates to stay calm.
