On a recent episode of his podcast, “Pat Bev Pod,” the former NBA guard shared how he feels about playing in Israel. Beverley also touched on the interest from other Euroleague teams amid the ongoing situation in the region.

“We’ve been having a couple of teams reach out, obviously because of what’s going on with the war. They want to know if I’m gonna stay here or where I’m gonna go. But I like it here, man. It feels good. I love my teammates. I love my coach. I love the owner,” he added.
