Lakers' Patrick Beverley ejected for shoving Suns' Deandre Ayton
"Got a person on the ground, two people looking over mean-mugging and puffing their chest out and referees don't get into it to kind of separate it, control the game, so I'm going to stand up for my teammate," Beverley said.was called for a shooting foul on Reaves, making contact with the second-year swingman then standing over him and staring at him while Reaves was on the floor.
"I'm not going for that s---," Beverley said. "Obviously, it's unfortunate that it happened on national TV. But you know me: Regardless of what's going on, I'm a big fan of protecting my teammates. ... I'm a foxhole guy. I put on the jersey, and I commit to a team, I commit to a city, and it's kind of my motto. I'm a foxhole guy.
"I really didn't see much after I got hit in the nose," Reaves said. "I thought I was bleeding, so I was on the ground. And when I did turnaround, I saw Pat have my back, which I love. Everybody on the team ... is the same way. If it was him, we would've done the same thing for him." Reaves said he had already told Beverley that he appreciated him "four or five times" from the end of the game to the time that Reaves spoke to reporters.
"He's a team player," Reaves said. "He rocks with who he rocks with. Whoever is on his team, you respect him. You love him. You're glad he's on your team. When he's not, he's a pest, does all that stuff, all those little things. But I just respect him for who he is and standing up for me.""I just think the league needs to take a look at those kinds of plays; they're just unnecessary," Phoenix coach Monty Williams said.
