New York Knicks forward Michael Beasley, who was most recently with the Milwaukee Bucks, is apparently moving to the city and has already started house hunting. One home he looked at was a penthouse duplex at 135 W. 52nd St. that’s on the market for $7.3 million.
The three-bedroom unit is 2,601 square feet and comes with 306 square feet of outdoor space. The unit features high ceilings, custom cabinetry and an open chef’s kitchen.
There’s also a library and a master suite with its own 153-square-foot terrace. This week Beasley, who considers himself a “scoring machine,” made news when he told reporters that, if Carmelo Anthony stays, a rebuilt Knicks squad will make the playoffs.
“Tim Hardaway Jr., Carmelo Anthony, Kristaps Porzingi s and myself — those are four guys that can score 25 points per game,” Beasley said, according to The Post.
“Then you add in Lance Thomas, Kyle O’Quinn, Joakim Noah — let’s not forget about that All-Star. It’s up to us to put it together just like it was up to them last year.”
Whatever happens, we’ll be watching. The listing broker for the 135 W. 52nd St. home Beasley and Morgan scoped out is Douglas Elliman’s Frances Katzen, who could not be reached for comment.
