Daily News | Get to know new Sixers guard Patrick Beverley from a reporter who covered him with the Clippers
76ers’They lost sharpshooter Georges Niang, reserve guard Shake Milton, and rangy wing Jalen McDaniels in free agency. But they matched the Utah Jazz’ offer to retain restricted free agent Paul Reed, signed 2021 draft-and-stash big man Petrušev to a standard contract, and surprisingly agreed to re-sign reserve center Montrezl Harrell.
First up is the Los Angeles Times’ Andrew Greif, who covered Beverley during his time with the Clippers. With that comes strong convictions about how things should be run — early in that same season Doc Rivers had to meet with him because Pat wasn’t yet bought in, in Rivers’ words then — and how authority in the locker room should be earned. He can be accepting and abrasive, all in the same night. The arrival of Leonard and George required a long and somewhat bumpy transition to assigning the locker room’s new hierarchy.
Well, I won’t forget the time I wore glasses — unusual for me, a contacts-wearer — to a media availability once and he said he approved the “Clark Kent thing going on.”
