“Dad, why the f**k?”: Patrick Beverley says his kids aren’t fans of his NBA 2K rating 

Patrick Beverley, like many basketball fans around the world, is currently awaiting the release of the latest iteration of NBA 2K. After hitting free agency following a short stint with the Chicago Bulls last season, Beverley landed a one-year deal in Philadelphia.

While he prepares for the upcoming season and navigates the ongoing controversy surrounding James Harden, Beverley has his sights set on another date. On September 8th, NBA 2k24 will hit shelves. For gamers like Patrick Beverley who have played every edition of the game since "NBA 2K," the hype is very real.

On a recent episode of The Pat Bev Podcast, "Mr. 94 Feet" spoke about his rating and how his son was less than thrilled to see his dad's rating.

Although he doesn't state what his rating is in the video, according to 2kratings.com, he is a 76 overall.

"I mean I care though [about my rating]. I have children, so they like, 'Damn Dad, why the f***-' Hey, hey, watch it, Son. 'I'm just saying Dad, you're not a 73,' or, 'You're not- You're at least 78 Dad.'"

Despite that, it seems as though it's all love between Pat Bev and NBA 2k's "Ronnie 2k."

"Shoutout to Ronnie man, I love 2k man, That's all I'm saying. I f*****g love 2k man. I've been playing it since ever."

"Ronnie 2k" responded to the clip of the podcast, Tweeting back:

"We have max love for you too Pat Bev. So weird I bought you up in an ESPN interview yesterday with Alex Prewitt too. Let’s do a pod together sometime."
