Patrick Beverley fined $25,000 for verbal abuse of game official
Patrick Beverley’s ejection on Saturday will cost him.
The Los Angeles Clippers guard was fined $25,000 by the NBA after verbally abusing a game official during his team’s 110-101 loss in Game 2 vs. the Denver Nuggets.
The incident occurred at the end of the contest. Beverley, 32, was tossed with 1:04 left in the game for arguing a foul call.

Patrick Beverley is no stranger to NBA fines
Beverley should be used to paying NBA fines by now. Last October, Beverley was fined $25,000 for throwing a ball into the stands, and in November, he received a $5,000 fine for flopping.
Beverley will look to avoid additional fines when the Clippers take on the Nuggets in Game 3 on Monday. The series is currently tied 1-1.
