After getting the spot start in the Milwaukee Bucks’ 114-105 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday, Patrick Beverley reverted to his usual bench role on Sunday against the Phoenix Suns. Both Khris Middleton and Malik Beasley returned to action on Sunday, which sent Beverley back to the second unit.
The veteran guard finished with three points, two rebounds, four assists, and a steal in 29 minutes of action as he helped the Bucks secure a 140-129 win over Kevin Durant and Co.
Patrick Beverley Reacts to Milwaukee Bucks’ Win Over Phoenix
As usual, Beverley had to send a message to their opponents shortly after the final buzzer. The three-time All-Defense guard went full savage on Twitter as he sounded off on Milwaukee’s latest win:
Sun is out Belt 2 A$$….. @PatBevPod

While Beverley did his part in the victory, most of the credit has to go to Damian Lillard for his majestic performance against the Suns. Dame popped off for a massive 31-point, 16-assist double-double to lead a Giannis Antetokounmpo-less side to a big win over Durant, Devin Booker, Bradley Beal, and the rest of the Suns.
As for Beverley, the Bucks will need his trademark toughness on Wednesday when they return to action. It’s going to be one of the biggest games of the season for Milwaukee as they head to Bean Town to challenge the league-best Boston Celtics.
That’s going to be quite a spectacle as the two top teams in the East go toe to toe in their third of four regular-season matchups.
