JA Morant mocks Patrick Beverley
Memphis Grizzlies star guard JA Morant mocked Timberwolves’ notorious guard Patrick Beverley after he got a defensive foul call while defending Morant in Game 2 of the round one on Tuesday night.
The game between the Grizzlies and Wolves was full of drama from the start of the first quarter. In the first three minutes, NBA refs called a foul on Karl Anthony Towns, later Patrick Beverly received a technical foul when he tried to swipe at the head of Grizzlies star Morant. After that, even Steve Adams got a call for the foul when he hit Jarred Vanderbilt’s face which was later upgraded to a flagrant one. Meanwhile, this all happened too early in the game and both teams looked furious to grab the win.
Although other players were getting calmed as the game was moving ahead but Wolves guard Beverley was still trying to get into the head of Morant. In this attempt, Beverley failed when he was again called out for the foul during the start of the third quarter. Meanwhile, the former ROTY didn’t miss the chance to mock the Wolves’ guard, just after the foul was called Morant started trash talking and taunted Beverly with a too-small action.
