NBA free agent Malik Beasley has reached an agreement to sign with the Cangrejeros de Santurce, a professional basketball team in Puerto Rico co-owned by music icon Bad Bunny, according to Shams Charania and ESPN.
The veteran sharpshooter spent the 2023-24 season with the Milwaukee Bucks, where he started 77 games and averaged 11.3 points per game. Known for his perimeter scoring, Beasley shot 41.3% from beyond the arc last season. His move to the Baloncesto Superior Nacional (BSN) represents a high-profile acquisition for the Puerto Rican league, which has increasingly attracted former NBA talent.
The Cangrejeros de Santurce have become a focal point of the BSN since Bad Bunny joined the ownership group in 2021. The team has previously signed other notable players with NBA experience as they look to compete for a league title. Beasley enters the roster as one of the most established active NBA players to make the jump to the Puerto Rican circuit in recent years.
