Former NBA player Michael Beasley has come clean on the rumors of him beating LeBron James in a 1-on-1 game. There have been multiple stories about "The King" unable to best the former No. 2 draft pick when they were teammates with the Miami Heat during the 2013-14 season.
While on Adin Ross' live stream, Beasley was asked about the accuracy of some stories about him beating the four-time NBA champion in 1-on-1 during practice. He confirmed that it happened, but the story on the internet was wrong.
"Yeah. I mean, the story is told wrong, but just know it's legit," Beasley said.

Fellow streamer N3on, who was also in the room along with Lance Stephenson, followed it up by asking the score, with "B-Easy" saying:

"A lot to a little."
It's unclear what the score was, but it seems like Michael Beasley "blew out" LeBron James in their 1-on-1 game. Beasley is considered by many of his peers as one of the most talented players they have ever seen. Some players even called him the best 1-on-1 player ever.
For those wondering, the story was initially told by Tom Haberstroh, who was a former ESPN reporter covering the Miami Heat. Haberstroh shared on the "Back-To-Back" podcast that Beasley would beat James every time they played 1-on-1 in practice.
The Kansas State product previously told his version of the story last year in an appearance on "The OGs Show" with Udonis Haslem and Mike Miller.
"It's some truth to the essence of that story, me and Bron, we ain't ever played 1 on 1, in front of people," Beasley said.
With LeBron James' bag being questioned on social, maybe it's time for him to clear up the 1-on-1 game he had with Michael Beasley. James has a podcast now and has been telling a lot of stories lately.
Michael Beasley explains why LeBron James is his GOAT
In an appearance on the "Common Denominator" podcast last month, Michael Beasley was asked to choose his GOAT between LeBron James and Michael Jordan. Beasley chose his former teammate, explaining why "King James" is the greatest ever.
"No shot to Jordan because he's Jordan, but they don't tell the story of him having to learn the championship pedigree," Beasley said. "LeBron James gave us, or has given us, the opportunity to be witnesses. We watched his good, his bad, we watched his ups, his downs so long, and he's been so great that we don't have anything to say."
From 8:14 onward.
Beasley also recently went viral for beating Lance Stephenson 31-21 in a 1-on-1 game at TNC 02 and winning $100,000.
