Patrick Beverley detained on felony charge as backlash grows over recent commentsPatrick Beverley, a former NBA guard, has run afoul of the law. The Fort Bend County Sheriff's Office in Richmond, Texas, detained the 6'2" point guard on Friday. Beverley is charged with Assault on a Family Member/Household Member Impeding Breath or Circulation, according to jail records.

It is classified as a felony of the third degree. He posted the $40,000 bail that was imposed for him. Later in the day, he is anticipated to be released.
A well-known hooper who was selected in the second round of the draft, Beverly has played for the Rockets, Clippers, Timberwolves, Lakers, Bulls, 76ers, and most recently, the Bucks.
In addition, he played professional ball abroad, winning the 2011 Russian Cup, the 2012 EuroCup MVP award, and the UBL Slam Dunk Contest title.
He most recently played basketball for the Hapoel Tel Aviv Basketball Club. Since then, Beverley has showcased his skills on stage. He even got into trouble for talking to Jason Williams about Megan Thee Stallion and Klay Thompson.
Guard Klay Thompson of the Dallas Mavericks publicly criticized former NBA players Jason Williams and Patrick Beverley for remarks they made about Megan Thee Stallion. Here are the recent events involving Williams, 49, Beverley, 37, and Thompson, 35.
After allegedly listening to the Tuesday episode of Barstool Sports' Hoopin' and Hollerin' podcast, Thompson had every reason to be unhappy. Beverley and Williams speculated that Thompson's offensive difficulties might be related to Stallion. Beverley said before he brought up Stallion:
“I’ve never seen Klay not shoot it like this... His routine is thrown off. I’m not saying it’s her… I watch them on Instagram… The guy was juggling. It’s easy to juggle one thing, but when you put something else in there it’s harder, [your] focus takes off a lil bit… Because that mother f–ker is short… He’s missing left and right.”
Thompson responded to Beverley and Williams' recent remarks on the Hoopin' and Hollerin' podcast without holding back, even though he may not be as vocal as his former Golden State Warriors colleague Draymond Green.
“How would y’all feel if I referred to your wives in such a way? @patbev21… Do better fellas. Very disappointing,” the 35-year-old wrote.
