BEING BEASLEY: The international exchange rate appears to be working favorably when it comes to Michael Beasley's time in China. Through his first 13 appearances with the Yao Ming-owned Shanghai Sharks, the former Heat first-round pick is averaging 28.3 points on .508 shooting, 11.3 rebounds and 3.9 assists. His rebounding average places him seventh in the Chinese Basketball Association, with Andray Blatche leading the league at 15.2. Beasley's 2.2 steals per game have him tied for eighth in the league with Metta World Peace, or whatever the former NBA forward is going by these days. Beasley's team is a middle-of-the-pack 6-8 overall. Beasley is coming off a 35-point, 10-rebound performance in a victory over the Foshan Long Lions, which extended his team's winning streak to four.
