Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 70817, member: 636"] Former NBA guard Patrick Beverley faces felony assault allegations after authorities say he attacked his sister at a residence in Texas. Court documents indicate the athlete strangled the minor for nearly half a minute and struck her eye with a closed fist following her unauthorized departure from the home to meet her boyfriend at a park. The boyfriend was summoned back to the property by the mother, which prompted Beverley to arrive and allegedly lift his sister off the ground by her throat before slamming her against the walls and threatening her life. Law enforcement observed neck injuries and eye hemorrhaging consistent with strangulation. Beverley was arrested and released on bond. His legal representative stated the athlete was acting out of concern after discovering his underage sister alone with an adult male late at night, disputing the account of events and anticipating the chance to present their case in court.
