LeBron James and Patrick Beverley have had a contentious relationship on the basketball court for years. They went from rivals to friends and are now rivals again.
Beverley endlessly mocked LeBron during their matchup two nights ago, which saw Beverley call LeBron ‘too small’ as the Bulls won. LeBron got his revenge tonight, making the former Lakers guard pass the ball out when he was guarded one-on-one by James in front of the basket.

Everyone that watches the game objectively will never make the mistake of saying Patrick Beverley is better than LeBron James. Just in case Beverley believes that, this clip of him passing the ball out because LBJ kept saying ‘hell no’ proves otherwise. Even when players say they don’t fear LeBron, they definitely shy away from testing or pissing him off on the court.
The Lakers won the game 121-110, led by Anthony Davis.
LeBron James Focusing On The Bigger Picture
Getting revenge on a career-long role-player like Patrick Beverley won’t be something that’s on LeBron’s to-do list. Making it to the playoffs and winning more titles before he retires is definitely on that list, and the Lakers have finally made moves toward that goal after 2 years of moving away from it.
James returned early from an injury to help the Lakers win more games. Even on a night like today, where the Lakers’ bench scoring was almost non-existent, LeBron’s solid performance as co-star to Anthony Davis worked well, and it allowed the Lakers’ starting lineup to feed off the superstar duo.
The Lakers are genuine threats heading into the playoffs, and it’ll be interesting to see whether they can deliver on the promise they have shown.
