The 28-year-old American basketball player **[Malik Beasley](https://www.frontofficesports.com/tag/malik-beasley/)** remains under investigation in a gambling case, and formal charges may still be brought against him, according to Front Office Sports.

Reports indicate that Malik Beasley has not been completely cleared in the federal inquiry into illegal betting. While he is no longer considered a «target» in the Eastern District of New York’s investigation, he still qualifies as a «subject,» meaning that his actions are still being examined and charges could still be filed, as acknowledged by his attorneys.

The Department of Justice defines a «target» as a person for whom there is substantial evidence linking them to a crime and who is believed by the prosecutor to be a potential defendant.

A «subject,» according to the Department of Justice, is an individual whose conduct is within the scope of a grand jury’s investigation.
