Veteran guard Patrick Beverley is on the move again. According to multiple reports, the Memphis Grizzlies traded Beverley to the Minnesota Timberwolves in exchange for Jarrett Culver and Juancho Hernangomez.

Beverley was a member of the Grizzlies for less than three days, being dealt to Memphis from the LA Clippers as part of the Eric Bledsoe trade.

Confirming the trade on Twitter, Beverley posted a series of tweets in which he expressed enthusiasm about the move.

Beverley is expected to help the Timberwolves on the defensive end while also providing experience and veteran leadership to a young team. He is expected to be the primary option from the bench for Minnesota in the 2021-21 season.

Beverley averaged 7.5 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 2.1 assists for the Clippers last season. He was limited to just 37 games, having dealt with multiple injuries during the campaign.

The Grizzlies, on the other hand, are most likely banking that Culver and Hernangomez can emerge as valuable rotational pieces.

Culver should be particularly interesting for Memphis as he is just two seasons removed from being taken with the sixth overall pick in the NBA Draft. The Texas Tech product had a solid rookie season, but his development has been hampered by his shooting struggles. As a pro, he is only hitting 29.8 percent of his threes and shooting just 40.6 percent from the floor. If the Grizzlies manage to find a way to help him fix this, Culver could prove to be a steal for them in the long run.

Hernangomez, on the other hand, showed flashes of talent in his five seasons in NBA but struggled with consistency. Suiting up for Denver Nuggets and Timberwolves, the Spaniard averaged 5.7 points and 3.5 rebounds per game. It remains to be seen whether his new surroundings will help him get his career back on track.

LA Clippers just witnessed another key player leaving the NBA bubble in Orlando. After center Montrezl Harrell exited the camp last week, Clippers’ guard Patrick Beverley reportedly followed on Tuesday.

Reportedly, Beverley left in order to “address an emergency personal matter.“ However, the 32-year-old starter intends to re-join the Clippers at some point in the future.

It would be a tough blow for Clippers in case they are forced to enter the playoffs without Beverley and Harrell as the duo emerged as important contributors for the team in 2019/20.

In 48 starts this season, Beverley averaged 7.9 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game. He was also integral for Clippers’ defense, as he was often tasked with guarding the opponent’s best player.

Harell, who also left the bubble due to personal matter, emerged as an NBA Sixth Man of the Year Award candidate this season. Before the NBA suspension in March, the 26-year-old had 18.6 points and 7.1 rebounds per game.

LA Clippers are set to play their first exhibition game in Orlando on Wednesday against Orlando Magic. They will resume the season on July 30th against West Conference leaders Lakers.

According to the ESPN‘s sources, the Los Angeles Clippers point guard Patrick Beverley won’t play again this NBA season. Beverley underwent microfracture surgery in Houston on Wednesday in order to repair a torn meniscus and the recovery period is estimated to nine months.

Having missed five straight games with sore right knee, Beverley made a return to the court on Monday in the game against the New York Knicks. He played 22 minutes in that game. During his time with the Clippers, Beverley averaged 12.2 points, 3.1 assists, 1.7 steals and 2.9 rebounds per game.

Previously the Los Angeles Clippers lost guard Milos Teodosic, who was a starting point guard for the team, having joined in the summer. Teodosic is out with a left plantar fasciitis injury and he isn’t expected to make a comeback anytime soon. Since Teodosic and Beverley were unable to play, the Clippers used Lou Williams, Austin Rivers and rookie Sindarius Thornwell in the role of point guard. Despite the strong start of the season, when they managed to get 4 straight wins, the Clippers now have a 5-11 record with 9 straight losses.

Patrick Beverley started his professional basketball career in 2008, playing for Dnipro in Ukraine. After averaging 16.7 points, 7.0 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 2.2 steals and 1.3 blocks per game in 46 games, Beverley entered the 2009 NBA Draft where he was selected as the 42nd overall pick by the Los Angeles Lakers. He was later traded to the Miami Heat but only played six preseason games. After a strong performance for Spartak St. Petersburg in the 2011-2012 season which brought him EuroCup MVP honors, Beverley signed a contract with the Houston Rockets. Although he had a shaky start with the Rockets, Beverley was assigned to the starting point guard role and established himself as one of the league’s best defensive players. He was traded to the Clippers in 2017 off-season in a deal that sent Chris Paul to the Rockets.
