After the buzzer sounds to end the first quarter in a game where the LA Clippers host the Memphis Grizzlies, forward Kyle Anderson grabs the ball to get a rhythm shot up. This kind of shot happens all the time in the NBA. It doesn’t count for anything, but shooters like to get reps in when they can. Patrick Beverley comes off the bench — in a blazer, no less — and blocks the shot.
That’s just the kind of player he is. No easy buckets, even if he’s sitting out with an injury.
After a summer during which the Clippers acquired two superstars in Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, there’s no question as to whose faces will be on the billboards.
