Los Angeles Clippers

Patrick Beverley issues sincere apology to Chris Paul after pushing him during Game 6 defeat

Los Angeles Clippers guard Patrick Beverley took to Twitter on Thursday to issue an apology to Phoenix Suns superstar guard Chris Paul.

In Game 6 of the 2021 Western Conference Finals on Wednesday night, Beverley aggressively shoved Paul from behind in the closing minutes of the game.

The result of the game was not in question at that point, as the Suns had built a massive lead.

Beverley was issued a technical foul and ejected. It was clear that he let his frustrations get the best of him amidst his team’s season coming to an end.

Paul gets the last laugh in this case, as his Suns are advancing to the 2021 NBA Finals while Beverley’s Clippers are done for the year.

Beverley was not much of a factor in the series offensively. He averaged just 6.0 points 3.7 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game.

Paul, on the other hand, poured on 24.0 points, 3.3 rebounds and 8.8 assists per game. His Suns will face either the Milwaukee Bucks or Atlanta Hawks in the NBA Finals.
