76ers’ Pat Beverley warns LeBron James of people ‘throwing rocks’ at helicopter

Former Philadelphia 76ers player Pat Beverley warned LeBron James about people "throwing rocks" at his helicopter when the NBA star commutes to the team's training facility in Camden, New Jersey. Beverley stated that Camden is not accustomed to helicopters landing in the area, and residents may start throwing rocks at the aircraft.

The 76ers, led by LeBron, Jaylen Brown, Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and VJ Edgecombe, are considered one of the best teams in the league following a successful offseason.
