Unrestricted free agent Michael Beasley is generating interest from a number of teams around the league, according to a tweet Saturday night from Alex Kennedy of Basketball Insiders. 

The once-troubled young star took a big step forward last season with clutch performances and is currently in Los Angeles training with reigning MVP Kevin Durant of the Oklahoma City Thunder. He had signed a one-year minimum salary deal with the Heat after getting waived by the Suns. 

Despite the efficiency, the 25-year-old forward averaged a career low 7.9 points for the Heat last year, to go along with 3.1 rebounds in 15 minutes per game in MIami, making 55 appearances on the season.

Michael Beasley is currently training in LA with Kevin Durant. Lakers could make sense for Beasley. He'd be a good fit to fill out roster.
