Michael Beasley is not currently signed with an NBA team, but if he does join one, he will be facing a suspension.

Beasley has been suspended five games for a drug violation, The Athletic’s Shams Charania reported on Thursday.

The 30-year-old forward played 26 games for the Los Angeles Lakers last season before being traded to the Clippers, who waived him. Beasley averaged 7.0 points and 2.3 rebounds in 10.7 minutes per game.

The No. 2 overall pick by the Miami Heat in the 2008 NBA Draft, Beasley signed in February to play in China. He has twice been involved in marijuana possession incidents.
