Patrick Beverley is receiving star treatment with Hapoel Tel Aviv, as the veteran NBA guard shared that his experience abroad has made him feel like LeBron James.
After a preseason game in Belgrade, Beverley mentioned on his podcast, as reported by Basketnews.com, that he’s been approached for photos by both players and coaches he’s competed against.
Even fans who initially boo him request pictures after games, with crowds of kids waiting for him outside venues in every country they visit.
“I know how LeBron feels. I leave games, and the guys that I play against want pictures. Coaches that I play against want pictures,” Beverley said on his podcast.
“The fans that I go against, they boo me, I leave out and it’s 30 kids outside, and they all want pictures. And this is every country we go to.”
Beverley signed with the Israeli team in July after spending last season with the Milwaukee Bucks.
