NBA Suspends Lakers’ Patrick Beverley For 3 Games

On Tuesday, Los Angeles Lakers lost to the Phoenix Suns (115-105). In the fourth quarter, Patrick Beverley fiercely pushed the opposing Deandre Ayton.

Beverley started claiming that Ayton was provoking his teammate Austin Reaves, who was already down on the ground after taking a shot to the face from 26-year-old Devin Booker. Reaves later came to Beverley’s defense.

NBA has now announced a three-game suspension on Beverley. Beverley will be out until November 30. Currently, Beverley is shooing just 26.6% overall and is 23.8% from the beyond-the-arc this season.

Take a look at the NBA’s full statement on Beverley’s suspension below.
