If you thought Miami's Mario Chalmers and Memphis' Darrell Arthur getting slapped with $20K fines was the end of it, it's not even over. ESPN reported that the #2 overall Michael Beasley, who was also in the marijuana scented room with two women was fined $50K because he "failed to cooperate with the league investigation," and that "the Heat said Beasley eventually chose to reveal that he was part of the incident."
Although there were not traces of the drug other than the scent, Beasley wasn't sent home from the Rookie Transition Program with teammate Chalmers and Arthur. Both rookies who were sent home apologized and denied marijuana use. Both were fined but were not given suspensions, but they'll still have to attend the rookie program next season with the class of 2009. All three players won't be suspended by the NBA, according to the article.
