Milwaukee Bucks guard Patrick Beverley refused to allow an ESPN producer to be a part of postgame interviews following the Bucks season-ending loss to the Indiana Pacers on Thursday. Beverley asked producer Malinda Adams if she was subscribed to his podcast. When Adams said she was not, Beverley said “You can’t interview me then.”
As another reporter asked Beverley a question, the Bucks guard asked Adams to leave the interview circle entirely. Beverley again stated that Adams couldn’t be a part of the interview because she’s not subscribed to his podcast.
Other local reporters shared that this behavior is nothing new for Beverley. He’s apparently taken the same stance with others since his arrival in Milwaukee following the trade deadline.
