Stephen A. Smith Has Three-Word Solution For NBA's Punishment Of Patrick Beverley

Milwaukee Bucks guard Patrick Beverley has been in the media spotlight the past few weeks, facing immense backlash for his actions in the Bucks' matchup against the Indiana Pacers.

He's being investigated by the league office, due to two mishaps that occurred in the game. The first is Beverley's interaction with a fan in the stands, throwing a basketball at the fans, not once but twice. He was also under the light for what happened in his postgame interview.

Beverley disrespected one of the reporters and ignored her, calling her out for not watching his podcast.

ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith spoke on his solution for the NBA to punish Beverley, given his behavior.

Smith believes "suspension is imminent." He thinks that Beverley crossed the line and needs to be disciplined for his actions.

"There's no excuse for what you did... I love Pat Bev, but it was indefensible. I have no support towards that," said Smith, via First Take on ESPN.
