Patrick Beverley is one of a kind. After winning the play-in game with the Minnesota Timberwolves and making the playoffs again, Beverly celebrated and the celebrations may have been a little too much. As such, the NBA fined him for that. But Beverly, being Beverly, posted his Venmo QR code so fans can help him pay his fine.

Beverley was fined for trash-talking to the Clippers and that cost him $30,000. The Timberwolves point guard was fined by the league for “egregious use of profanity” in the post-game comments to the press. Beverly was emotional after the Wolves came from behind to win 109-104. And he was heated in the game as he talked trash to his former team. The league felt he crossed a line, and he was fined for that.
