Famous NBA Athletes
It's not a secret that sport is full of criminal athletes. And NBA is not an acception. Being a thug or a gangster is the world of Basketball is considered cool. As a result, some of the most famous athletes have distinct marks on their criminal records. In the previous post, I have listed some of the most shocking facts you didn't know about NBA. In this post, I have compiled a list of the top 5 NBA Players Who Committed Crime in the Past.
Kendrick Perkins
The famous NBA player Kendrick Perkins ran into problems during his lockout time. One day, Perkins got drunk and intoxicated in some nightclub in Texas. There the famous NBA player tried to punch the manager of the club in the face. In addition, Kendrick had intentions to fight a few more
people up to the moment when he ended up in handcuffs.
Ben Wallace
Lockout time seems not to work in favor of NBA players. And Ben Wallace is another proof of this conclusion. The famous NBA player got arrested after he was pulled over by the police for driving while being drunk. As a result, Ben was obligated to pay a fine and serve thirty hours of community service.
Jason Kidd
Unlike the previous two individuals, this guy committed a serious crime. Back in 2001, Kidd was charged with spousal abuse. As a result, Jason had to attend anger management classes and pay his a fine of $200.
Delonte West
Delonte West is not only a great NBA player, but he is also a nice guy. Who could have imagined that West would get in trouble with the law at some point? Well, apparently the old saying got it right - still waters run deep!
In 2009 Delonte was arrested for carrying 2 guns in his guitar case: Ruger magnum handgun and Remington 870 shotgun.
Caron Butler
Caron Butler became a criminal earlier than anyone else in the NBA. Caron got arrested 15 different times before he turned 15 years. How symbolic and sad at the same time. Butler is grateful for what he has. The NBA made him a better person, it got him out of the jail.
