Having just been traded from the Lakers, Patrick Beverley planned to "revenge" his old team

With the desire to improve the quality of the squad, especially in the bigman position, the Los Angeles Lakers traded Patrick Beverley to Orlando Magic, in exchange for Mo Bamba - a young striker who possesses a very good physique and is also able to throw. 3 points.

Beverley is a "nomad" in the NBA (wearing 5 different colors in the past 3 years) so he understands the possibility of being transferred at any time and looks professional.

This defensive expert's initial share still shows respect for the old team. However, in the latest podcast issue, “Pat Bev said he had a plan to “revenge” the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Chicago Bulls and Lakers will meet in two consecutive games at the end of March. The first match took place at Crypto.com Arena, home of the LA team on March 27. The two teams will then board a plane to Chicago for the second encounter on March 30.

“Getting them out of the Playoffs,” Patrick Beverley said of his goal as he prepares to face the Los Angeles Lakers twice in March.

"We (Chicago Bulls) also need to get into the Playoffs and win as many games as we can at this stage, so with all due respect, I still have to aim to beat them."

At a time of sprint for the current play-in or Playoffs ticket, it is difficult to ask someone to give way to an opponent because of a love affair. They can respect each other, but when they meet on the field, they will have to play hard for the team's own goals.

After the last All-Star break, the Los Angeles Lakers ranked 13th in the Western rankings with a record of 27-32, while the Chicago Bulls were better in rankings when they ranked 11th in the East, owning a record of 26-33.

Although he has changed teams, Beverley's goals are still the same, but this time he will have more motivation because Chicago is where Pat was born and raised.

“Here I feel the positive energy from my new teammates, plus the support of my family members. I'm super excited and can't wait to start training and playing for my hometown team," Beverley shared on the podcast.

In 45 games for the Los Angeles Lakers before the trade, Beverley averaged 6.4 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game.

He has always shown the fire and enthusiasm in defense, which has made Pat Bev's trademark. Now the shirt color has changed but it will certainly stay the same in Chicago.
