Milwaukee Bucks veteran Patrick Beverley is a dude that wears his heart on his sleeve. We’ve seen an outburst of emotion from him on more than a few occasions, and as it turns out, this was the case again for the 35-year-old as the Bucks suffered a season-ending blowout loss in Game 6 against the Indiana Pacers.
Beverley had an interaction with a fan at the end of the game, and it would not be surprising if the NBA fines him for his actions here.
Milwaukee Bucks News: Patrick Beverley in Heated Altercation With Pacers Fan
With two and a half minutes remaining in the fourth quarter and the Pacers up 20 points, this game was already over. Beverley knew this, which is probably why he blew his top during an exchange with an Indiana fan standing behind the Milwaukee bench.
In the video below, Beverley is seen chucking the ball in the direction of the fan in question:

You have to credit the fan for his reflexes here as he blocked Beverley’s fastball. Had the Bucks vet missed his mark by a few inches, the fan could have very easily gotten hit by the ball on his face.
You can also see Jae Crowder quickly pulling Beverley back. Pat Bev did not seem to appreciate the gesture, and he appeared to have had some choice words for his teammate as well.
The league will probably look at this incident and it would not be surprising if Beverley is penalized for his actions.
