Clippers' Pat Beverley tosses ball at fan he says talked about his mother

Los Angeles Clippers point guard Pat Beverley was ejected from Sunday night's game in Dallas after he forcefully bounced a ball toward a fan sitting on the baseline. After the game, Beverley said the fan twice had yelled at him, "F--- your mother."

"I've never heard 'F--- your mother.' Never," Beverley said. "There's only so much you can stand for. I can accept 'F--- Pat and f-you Beverley.' I can accept that. I'm a grown man, but you know, you bring family into it, especially in a basketball game, it's only so much you can tolerate as a man.
