Scores 24 points in win Beasley produced 24 points (8-16 FG, 7-12 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three assists, two rebounds and two steals over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 123-108 win over the Pelicans.

Impact Beasley was one of the best performers for the Lakers in a comfortable win, reaching 20 points for the third time since joining Los Angeles ahead of the trade deadline. All told, Beasley is averaging 12.3 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.8 three-pointers, 1.5 assists and 1.1 assists in 26.3 minutes through his first 13 games in a Lakers uniform, so he may be best left for streaming purposes for three-point production rather than being viewed as someone who needs to be rostered in every 12-team league.

Falls flat in win Beasley amassed five points (2-10 FG, 1-6 3Pt), five rebounds and three assists in 22 minutes during Tuesday's 112-103 win over Memphis.

Impact Beasley struggled mightily with his jumper and posted his worst scoring outing since his Lakers debut. Coming into the contest, the veteran was averaging 14.1 points, 3.9 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.4 steals in 28.3 minutes over his last eight appearances (seven starts), so it's safe to assume Beasley will be able to bounce back from his poor shooting performance.

Gets hot from three Beasley finished with 15 points (5-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and one steal in 32 minutes during Friday's 110-102 loss to the Timberwolves.

Impact Beasley knocked down three triples and scored in double figures for the third time in as many games. He looked more comfortable shooting from range Friday evening after going 3-for-12 from deep Wednesday evening in Oklahoma City. Beasley has started six straight games for the Lakers and is averaging 13.2 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 steals over this stretch.

Drains seven triples Thursday Beasley contributed 25 points (9-16 FG, 7-11 3Pt, 0-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and three steals in 26 minutes during Thursday's 124-111 win over the Warriors.

Impact LeBron James and Anthony Davis both played in the contest, but Beasley not only led the Lakers in scoring, he matched the combined point total put up by Los Angeles' pair of superstars. Beasley was particularly electric from three-point range, going 7-for-11 and falling one triple short of his season-high mark. In his four games as a Laker, Beasley has averaged 14.8 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 3.8 treys and 1.8 steals. He doesn't offer much in terms of peripheral stats, but he's an option in fantasy as a three-point specialist who regularly hits double-digit point totals.

Moves into starting lineup Beasley produced eight points (3-9 FG, 2-7 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and one steal across 23 minutes during Wednesday's 120-102 victory over New Orleans.

Impact Lakers coach Darvin Ham previously said he was going to stick with Dennis Schroder alongside D'Angelo Russell, but instead he opted for more shooting in the backcourt. Beasley won't have a big usage rate in Los Angeles, but playing next to LeBron James, Anthony Davis and D'Angelo Russell means he'll get a ton of open looks from beyond the arc.
