Last Wednesday, Patrick Beverley slipped against the Phoenix Suns. Annoyed by the attitude of Devin Booker et Deandre Ayton facing a Austin Reaves on the ground, the Los Angeles Lakers point guard pushed the inside in the back.
Considered a repeat offender because of his past history, he was suspended 3 matches by the NBA. A sufficient punishment to make him regret his gesture? Absolutely not ! While the 34-year-old veteran has served this sanction, the Chicago native has added another layer.
“Fuck this situation, fuck him. When I saw the action, I couldn’t accept this shit. Just ask the people who played with me. Ask the superstars who played with me.
There’s a reason players want me on their team when they hear I’m available.” justified Patrick Beverley pour son podcast.
For once, such behavior of Patrick Beverley is actually nothing of a surprise. And among the Lakers, his attitude was unanimous. He is always ready to defend his teammates, even if it means having to bear the consequences in the process.
Devin Booker reframes Patrick Beverley after his stupid gesture!
