76ers' Patrick Beverley didn't mince words talking about Austin Reaves

Patrick Beverley and Austin Reaves didn't appear to have any issues during the former's short-lived tenure with the Los Angeles Lakers. Things apparently turned south after Beverley's departure following just 45 games as Reaves' teammate.

While speaking about Reaves on "The Pat Bev Podcast with Rone" of Barstool Sports, the current Philadelphia 76ers guard had no problem discussing his newfound feud with Reaves, and it all stems from the Lakers guard hitting him with a "too little" when Beverley was a member of the Chicago Bulls.

Beverley discussed it during a preview for his latest podcast episode while talking about facing Reaves and the Lakers on Monday night, a game the 76ers dominated, eventually winning 138-94.

"I didn't want to guard anyone else but Austin Reaves last night," Beverley said. "How dare you come in Chicago, in my hood, and hit me with the 'too little' and don't think that I'm gonna come for your neck? It's cool, he's gonna feel the wrath. From now on, I'm picking his ass up [for] 94 feet."

Beverley even discussed a brief dust-up he had with Reaves during Monday's game as well. He concluded by stating that whenever he sees the Lakers or "whatever team Austin Reaves is on," he's going to be "on his a--."

It seems that while Beverley and Reaves had a fine relationship during his stint in Los Angeles, it's now officially out the window for the remainder of the 35-year-old's career.

Beverley logged 24 minutes in the Sixers' impressive win, scoring 12 points on 4-of-9 shooting, knocking down all four of his attempts from beyond the arc and adding six rebounds and three assists.
