Patrick Beverley reveals what motivated him on defense against Tyrese Haliburton
Patrick Beverley appeared to be extra motivated when he guarded Pacers young star Tyrese Haliburton. In turns that indeed there was something that made the 34-year-old point guard work even harder in defense.
According to Beverley, it was a comment from Haliburton in which he mentioned the Lakers point guard’s name. Though he did not mention what was said specifically.
“I heard Haliburton did an interview a while ago and he mentioned my name and for a first-year guy to mention my name, especially with all the work I’ve done in this league defensively, I felt it was I wouldn’t say disrespectful, but I remembered his words,” Pat Bev said. “I took it kind of personal and I wanted that challenge tonight. Coach gave it to me.”
