James and Beverley’s violent spat

Back in 2015, LeBron James was a part of the Cleveland Cavaliers while Patrick Beverly was with the Houston Rockets. The two got involved in a physical incident during a game in the 2014-15 season.

During the third quarter, James ran towards the hoop with the ball and Beverley brought his body on the line. As a result, both of them fell on the ground and James landed with his hand on Beverley’s chest. The situation led to pushing and shoving while both of them were on the ground, forcing the referees to step in.
