A heated matchup between Damian Lillard and Patrick Beverley carried over to Twitter following a particularly contentious contest between the Trail Blazers and Lakers on Sunday night.
Taking to Twitter on Monday after Beverley helped spark L.A.’s come-from-behind, 121–112 victory, the two guards traded a series of jabs on Twitter. The first shot was fired by Lillard, who called Beverley a “con man” in response to an answer that the Lakers player gave during a postgame press conference.
During his media session, Beverley prodded ESPN reporter Dave McMenamin, who characterized Lillard’s 5-of-17 shooting performance as “a slow shooting night.”
