Milwaukee Bucks guard Patrick Beverley is quickly learning their are consequences to your actions.
Following the Bucks’ season-ending loss on Thursday night, Beverley refused to speak with ESPN producer Malinda Adams because she wasn’t subscribed to his podcast.
“Can you move that mic and get out of the circle for me please, mam? If you’re not subscribed to my pod? Thank you, I appreciate that,” Beverley said.
Countless people bashed Beverley for being so disrespectful to Adams. Many of them demanded that he gets fined for his actions.
While it’s still unclear if the NBA will discipline Beverley, ESPN wasted no time responding to this situation.
According to Front Office Sports, Beverley has been banned from making guest appearances on ESPN’s top shows such as “First Take” and “Get Up.”
Adams revealed on social media that Beverley apologized to her. She has decided to take the high road and move past this drama.
“I want to thank everyone for their kind words and support,” Adams wrote on X. “I am humbled. Patrick Beverley just called me and apologized. I appreciate it and accept it. The Bucks also reached out to apologize. I’ve been in news for over 40 years and kindness and grace always win.”
It’s certainly nice to see that ESPN is siding Adams in this situation, albeit that was an easy decision since she did nothing wrong.
