What is the beef between Brandon Jennings and Patrick Beverley?

The beef between Brandon Jennings and Patrick Beverley started in March. During a playback recording with Gilbert Arenas, Jennings called out several ex-NBA players he thought he could defeat in a one-on-one scenario.

The former Knicks guard did not mention Patrick Beverley. However, Beverley then suggested a one-on-one tournament featuring professional and ex-hoopers.

Jennings said that Beverley shouldn't be in this conversation, as he never averaged 10 points in his entire career. Beverley fired back at Jennings, saying he averaged the same points as a former Knicks guard in the postseason and had an upper hand in rebounds and assists.

The beef escalated when the former NBA players appeared on a "Gil Arenas" playback livestream. Jennings doubled down on his claim that Beverley had never averaged 10 points in his career. Later, the former Bucks guard challenged Jennings to a one-on-one game.

"Alright, let's just be regular hoopers, then. Let's play," Beverley said.
"You can't insert yourself into nothin' you ain't qualified for," Jennings fired back later.

While the beef lit the competitive fire in both athletes, they have yet to face off in an official game.
