NBA Media Unites to Slam Patrick Beverley for Disrespectful Behavior Towards ESPN Producer

The Milwaukee Bucks faced a humiliating defeat at the hands of the young Pacers squad, exiting the playoffs in the first round. However, the embarrassment didn’t end there as Patrick Beverley’s postgame actions took things one step further. During a postgame interview, Beverley asked ESPN producer Malinda Adams if she subscribed to his podcast, The Pat Bev Podcast. When she revealed she wasn’t a subscriber, Beverley refused to be interviewed, pushing away her mic and asking her to step aside.

The NBA media community quickly united to slam Beverley for his behavior, with veteran insider Brian Windhorst coming to Adams’ defense and suggesting Beverley may need to issue apologies. Other prominent figures in the NBA media, such as Tomer Azarly, Steve Smith, and Monte Poole, also criticized Beverley’s actions as inexcusable and disrespectful.

This isn’t the first time Beverley has shown disrespect towards others, as he previously interrupted NBPA Executive Director Michele Roberts during a discussion in the NBA Bubble. Beverley’s peers stood up to support Roberts, highlighting his pattern of disrespectful behavior.

The NBA media community’s response to Beverley’s actions shows a united front against such behavior, with hopes that Beverley will realize his mistake and issue an apology to Malinda Adams. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
