Video footage captured Beverley sitting on the bench and tossing a ball into the stands, hitting a fan in the head with about 2 ½ minutes remaining in the game on May 2nd. After another fan threw the ball back to Beverley, he threw it back at that spectator.
Beverley addressed his actions on an episode of “The Pat Bev Podcast” released on Wednesday. He mentioned being called a word he had never heard before but acknowledged that his behavior was still unacceptable.
