Beverley was weighing whether he’d sign a veteran minimum contract in the NBA or try his luck overseas.
With a contract that is starting at $2 million, Beverley’s choice became pretty easy.
Beverley, who just turned 36, started the 2023-24 season playing for the Philadelphia 76ers before moving to the Milwaukee Bucks at the trade deadline in February, where he was reunited with his former head coach, Doc Rivers.
During his time with the Bucks, Beverley averaged 6.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 2.9 assists on 41.7% from the field.
Beverley got a lot of time to shine with Milwaukee, especially because the team was so decimated by injuries heading into the playoffs.
His season ended in controversy because Beverley was under fire for throwing the ball at a Pacers fan at the end of Game 6 of the first round of the playoffs.
He also received backlash for how he treated a reporter after the game.
That means if he ever comes back to the NBA, he will have to face a four-game suspension.
But there is a very good chance that he will not be coming back to the association and will spend the rest of his career playing overseas.
His contract proves that there is a lot of money in international markets and Beverley is just one of many players looking to earn some.
