Loved-up ex-NBA star Patrick Beverley proposes to his stunning model girlfriend on romantic vacation

Ex-NBA star Patrick Beverley has announced his engagement to model girlfriend Mandana Bolourchi after popping the question in a romantic setting while on vacation together. Beverley, 37, shared pictures of his proposal on Instagram over the weekend, having got down on one knee in between two bouquets of roses on a balcony covered in red petals, which overlooked a stunning marina in the background. The point guard, who played for the Houston Rockets and Los Angeles Clippers amongst other teams during his 12-year NBA career, is seen putting an engagement ring onto Bolourchi's hand and enjoying a glass of champagne with his new fiancee in the photo dump. 'Forever...' he wrote as the caption. 'She said yes'. Beverley has dated Bolourchi, a 31-year-old fashion model, entrepreneur and influencer with over one million followers on Instagram, since 2021 after reportedly meeting in California during his stint with the Clippers. The social-media beauty was born in Iran and has also lived in Dubai, though she has resided in Los Angeles in recent years. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Patrick Beverley (@patbev21) Since leaving the NBA last year, on the back of a controversial end to his spell with the Milwaukee Bucks, Beverley most recently played in the Israeli Basketball Premier League with Hapoel Tel Aviv. Before departing Hapoel via mutual consent, he was suspended by the team for mocking his coach, Dimitris Itoudis, on social media after being benched during a championship loss in February. Beverley was also sued by two women over a heated courtside altercation that occurred towards the end of his time in Milwaukee, which saw him take his anger out after a playoff defeat to the Indiana Pacers by throwing a ball towards rival fans and hitting a woman on the side of the head. The NBA issued a four-game suspension to him over the incident, which he is yet to serve after leaving Milwaukee on the back of that defeat.

It's been a busy offseason so far in the NBA, as front offices across the league continue to weigh roster decisions ahead of training camp. With injuries impacting several contenders, and a considerably strong draft class entering the league, teams are actively reassessing depth needs and contract flexibility. Advertisement The free agent market has also remained fluid, and some teams are already showing interest in veterans who can provide some experience on the bench. As franchises currently evaluate the market to find the best fits for vacant roster spots, some players, including those who were not on an NBA team last season, have expressed interest in making a return.

In a post on X, Beverley responded to a fan who encouraged him to join the Charlotte Hornets, and announced his decision to attempt an NBA comeback. 'Looking at all options as we speak," he said. "we def going back to NBA next season 🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️" Advertisement Beverley last played in the league during the 2023-24 season, appearing in 73 games across stints with the Philadelphia 76ers and Milwaukee Bucks. Known for his perimeter defense and vocal leadership, he also spent time with the Lakers during the 2022-23 season before being traded midyear. Over his career, Beverley has played 666 games, averaging 8.3 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 3.4 assists across 12 NBA seasons.

Giannis Antetokounmpo Had Three Words After Patrick Beverley's Announcement

Giannis Antetokounmpo Had Three Words After Patrick Beverley's Announcement originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Patrick Beverley has carved out a reputation as one of the NBA's grittiest competitors since being drafted in 2009 by the Los Angeles Lakers at No. 42 overall. After being selected, Beverley first built his game overseas in Ukraine, Greece, and Russia before returning to the league in 2013. He went on to become a defensive spark plug for teams like the Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Clippers, and Minnesota Timberwolves, with later stints for the Lakers, Chicago Bulls, Philadelphia 76ers, and Milwaukee Bucks. Advertisement Throughout his career, Beverley made his mark on the defensive end — he's been named to the NBA's All-Defensive Team three times, including First-Team All-Defense honors in 2017. Most recently, he spent the 2024-25 season playing overseas for Hapoel Tel Aviv in Israel, where he averaged 9.4 points, 3.4 assists, and 3.3 rebounds in nine regular season games before parting ways with the club in February.

While not much has been said of his return to the NBA, Beverley had more personal news to celebrate this week, announcing his engagement to his girlfriend on Instagram, with the caption: 'Forever… She Said Yes 💍' Advertisement The post drew warm reactions from across the basketball world — including a three-word comment from Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo, who wrote simply: 'Aaawwww so cute 🤎💯' Beverley and Antetokounmpo were teammates in Milwaukee during the 2023-24 campaign. In his final NBA season, he averaged 6.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 2.9 assists per game It remains to be seen if Beverley could make a return to the league and what teams would be interested in adding him to their roster. If in form, the 37-year-old could play a solid bench role on a contending team and his locker room presence could be greatly utilized.

Patrick Beverley dumps cold water on Quentin Grimes' $25 million 76ers request

The post Patrick Beverley dumps cold water on Quentin Grimes' $25 million 76ers request appeared first on ClutchPoints. One of the more prized names on the free agent market who hasn't yet been signed is Philadelphia 76ers guard Quentin Grimes. Grimes rose from obscurity down the stretch of last season and put together an incredible stretch of games once the 76ers were essentially out of playoff contention. Advertisement The reported holdup causing the two sides not to come to terms on a new deal is the fact that Grimes wants $25 million a year, which Philadelphia is reportedly reluctant to shell out, per The Athletic. Recently, former 76ers guard Patrick Beverley took to the Pat Bev Pod to relay his thoughts on the situation. 'He needs to relax… I'm all with the homies getting paid, but let's be realistic… Put some more work in,' said Beverley. The big question pertaining to Grimes right now is how much of his late-season heroics are sustainable long term, and how much were simply a blip on the radar and can be attributed to the fact that he was quite literally the only reliable scoring option for the 76ers at that time, and that overteams may have been overlooking Philadelphia on their schedule. Advertisement Grimes is far from the first player to rise from obscurity and go on a hot streak down the stretch of a season, and the results have been mixed as far as those players' future prospects go. A big decision for the 76ers Kyle Ross-Imagn Images Another factor worth considering for the 76ers is the sheer number of scoring guards the team has on its roster. Jared McCain will be back in the lineup after his Rookie of the Year campaign was cut short due to injury. VJ Edgecomb looked like a potential star during his first summer league game on Saturday evening. And of course there's still Tyrese Maxey, who remains one of the elite scoring guards at his position. Advertisement With all of these options already in the backcourt, it's easy to see why the 76ers might have some hesitancy in committing so much money to Grimes, who clearly can score the ball but doesn't provide much in the way of playmaking or facilitating. In any case, it may be a while before the Grimes saga concludes.
