NBA Suspends Bucks' Beverley Four Games Without Pay for May 2 Misconduct

May 9, 2024, 06:09 PM

The NBA has suspended Milwaukee Bucks guard Patrick Beverley for four games without pay due to two separate incidents on May 2, during and after a game against the Indiana Pacers. Beverley forcefully threw a basketball multiple times at spectators and engaged in an inappropriate interaction with a media member during media availability. NBA spokesman Tim Frank condemned Beverley's behavior towards ESPN producer Malinda Adams as 'unacceptable' and 'unprofessional'. The financial impact of the suspension on Beverley is pending, as it will be calculated based on 1/174 of his salary per game from his next contract.
