Recent rumors suggesting that Patrick Beverley has been waived by Hapoel Tel Aviv are unfounded. The former NBA player’s transition to the Israeli team has generated both excitement and confusion, primarily due to a viral tweet from a parody account. This misinformation rapidly spread among NBA fans but has been confirmed as false.
Beverley, who recently signed a lucrative $2 million contract with Hapoel Tel Aviv, was met with a warm reception from the team’s supporters. Fans, dressed in red, enthusiastically engaged with Beverley through selfies and friendly interactions, reflecting their high expectations for his role in the team. Despite the false claims circulating online, Beverley remains a crucial part of Hapoel Tel Aviv’s plans as the team prepares for the Israeli Premier League season, which runs from October to June.
The excitement surrounding Beverley’s move stems from his impressive 12-season NBA career, during which he earned a reputation for his defensive skills and three-point shooting.
Last season, he averaged 6.2 points per game, often serving in a supporting role offensively. However, recent pre-season highlights have showcased his continued abilities and hinted at a potential for a more significant offensive role with his new team.
Beverley’s arrival at Hapoel Tel Aviv is seen as a major development for both his career and the team. Hapoel Tel Aviv is eagerly anticipating the impact of his extensive experience, including his time in international competitions such as the EuroCup. With the team striving for its first Israeli title since 1969, Beverley’s presence is expected to play a key role in their pursuit of success. As the new season approaches, both local fans and basketball enthusiasts are keen to see how Beverley will influence the team’s performance and contribute to their quest for victory.
