The officials reviewed the play and actually called Beverley for a Flagrant 1 foul, giving Paul three free throws. The Phoenix Suns guard made all three attempts to cut the Clippers’ lead to six at 71-65.
Beverley was later shown apparently making up to Paul. Beverley did not seem to realize that Paul legitimately fell after their collision.
