PCTI2 Projected Stats:
PPG-9.6
RPG-5.2
APG-1.4
Pro's:
Skilled, relentless, physical defender that enjoys being disruptive. Discipline and quickness make him very difficult to score on. Long and athletic. Plays full throttle at all times. Attacks the basket offensively and can finish. Accurate shooter that can hit from anywhere. Good rebounder despite not being overly physically imposing. Strong base on defense. Good teammate that comes from a winning program. Training regimen at high altitudes should be a positive. Super competitive.
Con's:
Despite looking good recently, still rehabbing his body into basketball shape after a two year hiatus from a torn pectoral muscle. Has been known to try and take over occasionally. Does not prefer defending the post and has no game with his back to the basket. Shot can be inconsistent. Lack of PCTI experience could be a weakness. Passion for the game came into question in college but appears re-dedicated. Not known as a top notched passer despite being very willing.
Overall:
A relatively complete player on paper, Beasley will be the only rookie entering the PCTI ranks. Seems to be a good fit in Team Legs Feed the Kitten system as a defensive stopper, energy guy, and scorer. Will need the leadership of Jeff Sabin to make sure he is ready for the marathon that is PCTI. Has been well received for his engagement in emails early on. Currently training in Lake Tahoe can be a positive and negative, as his lack of competition should be a significant draw back. Will he be ready for top competition? If Sabin's tuteledge can keep him focused, expect to hear Beasley talked about in the All-Tournament ranks for years to come.
