Miami Heat F Michael Beasley checked himself into a drug-treatment center earlier this summer. It was reported that Beasley had an "emotional breakdown". Beasley used "Twitter" to show off pictures of his new tattoos. In the pictures, there was a small bag of a substance that looked like marijuana. The pictures made their way across the internet and Beasley promptly deleted his Twitter account. This wasn't the first time Beasley's name has come up in drug conversations. During this year's rookie camp, before the season even started, Beasley along with Heat G Mario Chalmers were fined and suspended for having marijuana in their hotel room. Nor the Heat or Beasley's representatives have commented on the situation. It will be interesting to see how Beasley and the team adress the issues during training camp. Google "Beasley Marijuana" and check out some of the pictures.
