He will also enter an anger-management program.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Beasley and his now-estranged wife Montana Yao were both facing fifth-degree drug possession charges stemming from the September 29 arrest, when police found marijuana at his home, but those charges were dropped as part of his plea deal, according to ESPN.<\/p>\n<p>Haney told ESPN that Beasley&#8217;s felony charge could be reduced to a misdemeanor at the end of his probation. There&#8217;s also a chance that Beasley could spend his sentence between work release and home detention. For now, though, he&#8217;s expected to serve his time sat a facility known as &#8216;The Workhouse&#8217; at Hennepin County (Minnesota) Adult Corrections Facility.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2021\/02\/09\/18\/39081810-9242005-image-m-14_1612896163880.jpg\" height=\"545\" width=\"306\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2021\/02\/09\/18\/39081780-9242005-image-a-15_1612896171600.jpg\" height=\"545\" width=\"306\"><\/p>\n<p>Minnesota Timberwolves guard Malik Beasley has been sentenced to 120 days in jail after he pleaded guilty to one felony count of threats of violence for pointing a firearm at a family that had mistakenly pulled him to his rental home in their car.\u00a0Beasley and his now-estranged wife Montana Yao (far right) were both facing fifth-degree drug possession charges stemming from the September 29 arrest, but those charges were reportedly dropped as part of his plea deal<\/p>\n<p>On September 26, a couple was on a &#8216;Parade of Homes&#8217; tour in Plymouth, Minnesota with their 13-year-old child when they inadvertently pulled up to a roped-off property being rented by Beasley.
