Just before the start of the season, Beasley claimed that in terms of raw talent, he was on par with Kevin Durant and LeBron James. Durant recently said that he might not be wrong.
Now, we don't have a way to know if the claims are true are not, but one thing is for sure that Beasley is one extremely talented scorer. He can score from everywhere. Can post up, can shoot, can score over everybody, can use both of his hands and that makes him one of the best scorers in the isolation right now.
He has the best field goal percentage among the players with more than 2.5 points per game in isolation. He also has a high frequency of isolation, with 22.9%. Let's see how much he will be able to get himself back in the NBA playing a major role for the Knicks' bench this year.
