NBA celebrity Nick Wright angrily blasted Beverley: " He has turned into a delusional clown full of vulgar taste! Beverley promoted his podcast at the expense of his career. He has already It’s the last second of your time in the NBA, get out of the league! “What happened to Beverley? Being scolded so harshly!
Beverley made two mistakes in a row: . Hitting Pacers fans with a basketball; 2. Because the other party did not follow his podcast, Beverley refused to be interviewed by an ESPN female reporter. Let’s talk about the first thing first. In the first round of the playoffs in G6, the Bucks lost to the Pacers 898-120. In the fourth quarter, Beverley hit the Pacers fans with basketballs twice in a row!
Beverley hit a female fan with the ball first, he pretended not to do so and tricked the male fan into giving the basketball to him. Next, Beverly hit the male fan hard with a basketball. Beverley even tweeted an explanation after the game: "That fan has been arguing with our team all night. We have been warning him and asking for help all night. This is not fair!"
NBA officials have now intervened in the investigation. NBA Commentator Barkley said: "Beverley will be suspended, and it may be heavier because it is not his first offense." In this year's playoffs, Beverley averaged 34.9 minutes per game, scoring 8.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, 5.5 assists and 1 steal. 0.7 blocks, three shooting percentages of 41%, 36.4%, and 86.7%.
Let’s talk about the second thing. Beverley directly caused public outrage in the NBA media circle. After the end of G6, ESPN female reporter and producer Malinda Adams conducted a locker room interview. Beverly asked her: "Have you followed my podcast?" Malinda Adams answered no, and Beverly immediately said: "Then you can't Interview me.”
Did you think Beverly was joking? not at all! After a while, he pushed away the female reporter's microphone and said seriously: "Can you take your microphone away? Or just go out..." ESPN is not someone to be trifled with, and immediately announced that it would ban Beverley. He is banned from being a guest on any ESPN programs. can only say that Heibei asked for it.
Seeing that the matter became a big deal, Beverley and the Bucks formally apologized to Malinda Adams, who also accepted their apology. However, ESPN's ban order has not been lifted. Many commentators and reporters from , including O'Neal, Barkley, Perkins, Keith Smith, etc., all bombarded Beverley for his "unprofessional" behavior!
Beverly is going crazy for podcast traffic! Just because others did not pay attention or subscribe, I refused to be interviewed, blatantly violated NBA regulations, and was on the verge of committing suicide. Beverley's contract is one year, $3.2 million, expiring this summer. Once the NBA suspends him, it will be implemented by Beverley's new club.
In the regular season this season, Beverley played a total of 73 games with the 76ers and Bucks. He averaged 20 minutes per game, scoring 6.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 0.6 steals, shooting 41.7% from the field, 33.7% from three-point range, and 82.2% from free throws. Beverly was born on July 12, 1988, and will turn 36 this summer.
So here’s the question: Do you think Beverley will still get a contract this summer?
