The NBA suspended free agent guard Patrick Beverley for four games without pay for angrily hurling a basketball into the stands during his team's season-ending loss, officials said Thursday. As Beverley's Milwaukee Bucks were being eliminated by the host Indiana Pacers in Game 6 of the their series last week, he threw a basketball into seats behind the visitors bench.
That should have never happened, regardless of what was said, simple as that.” After the game where the ball was hurled, Beverley refused to answer questions from ESPN producer Malinda Adams. Beverley, 35, is an unrestricted free agent so his next team would, presumably, be forced keep him off the team for four regular season games.
