Beasley getting evicted from luxury Detroit high-rise
Former Piston Malik Beasley is being evicted from a $7,000-per-month apartment in The Stott, a 38-story Art Deco skyscraper overlooking downtown's Capitol Park, court records show. The big picture: His eviction case is just one of several financial problems that have come to light since ESPN reported in late June that Beasley is the subject of a federal gambling probe. He has not been charged with wrongdoing. The investigation has shelved negotiations between the Pistons and Beasley on a new multimillion-dollar contract. He played for Detroit last season on a 1-year, $6 million deal, setting the franchise record for most three-pointers in a season (319). Zoom in: Despite earning nearly $60 million as an NBA player, Beasley's financial problems amount to more than $8 million for debts owed to a marketing company, to a lender that specializes in loans to pro athletes and to others, the Detroit News reported. He owes $23,220 to The Stott in unpaid rent and other costs, court records obtained by Axios show. State of play: Beasley's landlord initially sued him for unpaid rent in March. That case was dismissed less than a month later and the landlord again filed suit in Detroit's 36th District court in June, court records show. The court entered a default judgment against Beasley on July 15 and the eviction order was filed Aug. 6. What they're saying:"Obviously he's going through some tough times now," Beasley's attorney in the federal investigation, Steve Haney, tells Axios. Haney stressed that Beasley has not been charged. He said that people in Detroit should remember what a great Piston and teammate Beasley was. "It's unfortunate an allegation can have such dire consequences," said Haney, who is not representing Beasley in civil matters such as the eviction case. Context: Dan Gilbert's Bedrock bought The Stott in 2015 and converted it into a high-rise apartment building. It was built in 1929 for the Stott flour mill company. The latest: Beasley said in a social media post last week that he's getting ready for the upcoming season.

Boulder native Ty Haney returns to Outdoor Voices

Why it matters: Her return follows a trend of female founders rejoining the brands they started.

Meanwhile, Haney has founded two other startups: Joggy Energy, a plant-based sparkling energy drink, and a brand loyalty rewards platform called Try Your Best that raised $11 million in Series A funding. What she is saying: "We've always been good at zigging when people zag and offering a fresh take," Haney told Inc., regarding her plans to grow Outdoor Voices. "I'm excited to reactivate our original customer, but also introduce this doing things philosophy to a younger Gen-Z audience." Zoom in: Haney was born in California but grew up in Boulder.

Ty Haney is back at Outdoor Voices, this time with a new collection
This story was originally published on Retail Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Retail Dive newsletter. Dive Brief: After Outdoor Voices abruptly shuttered its store footprint last year, Tyler Haney is back as the brand preps to drop a new collection. The DTC activewear brand, which was acquired by Consortium Brand Partners a year ago, wiped its Instagram feed and now features just one video reintroducing founder, owner and partner Haney, who has spent the past nine months reimagining a collection for the brand. That new line is expected to debut Aug. 4, according to Instagram. The brand's website currently features a sign-up page to unlock first access to the launch, as well as the phrase, 'Doing new things.' Dive Insight: The next chapter of Outdoor Voices has its founder back at the helm. 'We're back, baby,' Haney says in a voiceover video detailing the history of Outdoor Voices. 'I'm so excited to be reactivating this Doing Things mission.' Haney famously resigned from the DTC darling in 2020 amid financial challenges and reports of conflict between herself and retail magnate Mickey Drexler, who was then chairman of the board at Outdoor Voices. One New York Times article detailing the downfall of the brand cited an anonymous letter sent to the board that blamed Haney for seasoned executive departures and called her 'spoiled' and mercurial, among other things. Haney at the time called out the stories that were circulating as one-sided. But it hasn't been smooth sailing since 2020, either. Lunya founder Ashley Merrill took over as chairwoman of the brand that year with a mission to make it more profitable through an operations overhaul. But in 2022, reporting circulated that the company was looking to sell itself, and two years after that, the retailer was sparking bankruptcy speculation and shuttering its 15 stores. That's when Consortium Brand Partners scooped up the brand, placing it in a portfolio alongside Draper James and, as of this year, Jonathan Adler. Cory Baker, co-founder and managing partner of Consortium, told Retail Dive at the time that though stores would remain shuttered for now, it planned to open locations in the future, possibly in 2025. The executive also said that Outdoor Voices' problems were fixable, and that the brand intended to expand into new categories, and enter wholesale and specialty stores. Consortium Brand Partners did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Haney's return to the brand and the new collection launch. In relaunching Outdoor Voices, Haney notes that she was 'a lot younger' when she founded the company, calling herself 'a baby girl' straight out of college. According to Haney, the retailer reassembled the original creative team and brought in some additional staff as well to help shape the first collection. She describes the new product as 'fashion-y' and says it has a perspective, but it does take its cues from the original brand she founded. 'Over the last nine or so months, we've been working on the product — the uniform for doing things — and it has a lot of the same sensibility as original OV in terms of material meant to move, technically credible, functional,' Haney says in the video. 'I think you're really going to like it.' Error in retrieving data Sign in to access your portfolio Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data Error in retrieving data
