Former Chicago Bulls guard Ben Gordon was arrested in Connecticut, after acting erratically in a juice shop, via ESPN.
When the police arrived, Gordon was said to be continuing to act erratically, and was found to have various weapons on his person and in a bag he was carrying.
Adding insult to injury, the arrest occurred on Gordon’s 40th birthday.
Gordon was drafted by the Bulls in 2004 and spent his first five NBA seasons in Chicago, averaging 18.5 points, 3.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists. He is most known for his 2009 playoff series against the Boston Celtics, where he made numerous clutch shots and scored 42 points in Game 2 of that series.
This is not the first concerning incident involving Gordon, who was arrested for punching his son in October, and arrested for assaulting a security guard at a McDonald’s in November.
Here’s to hoping Gordon’s able to finding the help he appears to need.
