Pacers fans sue former Bucks player over incident in 2024 playoffs

Two Indiana Pacers fans are suing the Milwaukee Bucks and former Bucks guard Patrick Beverley after an incident during an NBA playoff game last year in Indianapolis.

In the lawsuit filed last Friday in Marion County (Ind.) Superior Court, two Pacers fans claim they experienced mental anguish and humiliation after Beverley twice threw a basketball toward fans behind the team bench late in the Bucks’ 120-98 playoff loss to the Pacers on May 2.

The two women plaintiffs say that despite Beverley’s actions, they were asked to leave the game.

The lawsuit names Beverley, the Bucks organization and former assistant coach Josh Oppenheimer as defendants in seeking compensation for lost wages and medical expenses.

“We believe that the Milwaukee Bucks fostered a culture of misconduct by their players without any repercussions,” said their attorney John Kautzman, according to the Indiana Lawyer. Bucks officials did not respond to a request for comment from the Indianapolis Star, and Beverley could not be immediately reached.

The NBA suspended Beverley, 36, for four games over the incident, but he has not served that punishment because he signed with Hapoel Tel Aviv BC in the Euroleague over the offseason.
