Patrick Beverley has been transferred to the Milwaukee Bucks, reuniting with Doc Rivers.
The trade of Patrick Beverley to the Milwaukee Bucks has been finalized. The defensive standout has already packed his belongings and is en route to Milwaukee. However, Beverley is taken aback by this move. He was given the assurance that he would not be traded. At least, that is what he was informed by the General Manager of the Philadelphia 76ers. But, two weeks later, the situation has changed. Fans are displeased with how Morey has once again failed to keep his word.
Patrick Beverley was discussing the trade on his podcast, The Pat Bev Podcast with Rone, when the news broke. Beverley talks about a conversation between him and Morey the day after the announcement of the new head coach of the Bucks. The 76ers were exploring trade options to enhance the team. Beverley inquired if he would be traded. Morey responded by saying:
Two weeks later, those words have been proven false. Another individual adds that this essentially makes Morey a dishonest person. He deceived Beverley back then.
This situation is similar to what a former teammate disclosed about Morey. Harden stated that Morey reneged on his promise of offering him a Max contract. This led Harden to request a trade out of the 76ers, ultimately landing in Los Angeles. Now it appears that Beverley’s case has been affected in the same manner.
“So [Daryl Morey] is a liar?” Daryl Morey told @patbev21 that he wasn’t getting traded @PatBevPod pic.twitter.com/pEQ5cy1gRS
Patrick Beverley was traded to the Bucks in exchange for [player name] and a second-round pick in 2027. This move reunites Beverley with head coach Rivers, who has previously coached him twice. Rivers’ understanding of Beverley’s defensive skills and competitiveness were the driving factors behind acquiring him.
Basketball enthusiasts witnessed a repeat of the James Harden scenario. They did not anticipate another star accusing Daryl Morey of dishonesty. After all, experiencing a second instance within a few months paints a negative image of Morey. Players may no longer trust his words.
Once Beverley revealed the conversation, basketball fans wasted no time expressing their thoughts on Morey. They promptly shared their feelings about Morey on social media. Here are some of their reactions:
Harden was correct.
Morey is a liar, as confirmed by Harden months ago 😂
Wow. This is likely to impact free agents, especially considering his modus operandi. It’s better to be transparent than deceitful, especially when it happens twice in one season lol.
Daryl Morey doesn’t appear to have the best rapport with players lmao

Harden wasn’t lying about Morey’s deceit.
No one should trust what Morey says.
James Harden warned all of us.
Daryl Morey’s credibility has been severely damaged. Basketball fans are not pleased with what they are witnessing from Morey.
