Bouknight arrested?

[8893]

I'm like to get some clarification. Was he passed out or was he driving into police cars.

Yes

I'm like to get some clarification. Was he passed out or was he driving into police cars.

Security called the police because he was blocking access to the parking garage/lot and he was passed out with a gun in his hand. Police set up a perimeter around him and used a PA system, air horns, and flashing lights for an hour before Bouknight woke up. Upon waking up he disobeyed police commands for several minutes and ate food before he drove into two police cars, one in front of him and one behind him.

1st James passed out with a gun in his lap is very concerning in regards to suicide. Why? Pressure that he feels and puts on himself. Is he able to deal with the struggle to live up to his draft status? 2nd If no one is going to effectively help him down there I think Dan Hurley should take a break from practice and go see him. Try and understand what is going wrong and "how can I help?". 3rd This pattern of DUI driving is going to end badly for James or innocent other drivers. He has to get help and stop doing this!

Looks like section § 132-1.4 of the North Carolina Statutes, deals with Public Records.

If anyone cares to read through all the verbiage, it seems to provide guidelines on what information gets released to the public about a criminal investigation.

So, it should be forthcoming soon.

Until then, I offer no opinion as to what exactly happened because I don't know.

He is playing again tonight and he has started 0-3 to make him 0-8 on the year. I don't understand why they are letting him play through this. He clearly has to work on himself away from the game, and now it seems he is bringing his off-the-court stuff onto the court.

Don't blame your reading comprehension on others.

You want to hear Bouk's version (the guy who was so drunk/drugged up with a gun in his hand passed out) over the police version of events? There was security and a bunch of police there, you think they all got together to concoct a sensational story about some no name NBA player?

You're digging, put down the shovel

Bouk obviously has issues. No doubt. But you want me to off handedly believe cops?

Lol @ you.


Wake up.

He can’t make a shot. Jeez

 

[NC_Uconn_Fan]

0-10 shooting through 2 games after looking bad in the preseason. He also had a terrible possession end of the 1st half. I feel he's getting a chance and blowing it.

 

[UconnU]

He can’t make a shot. Jeez

Can’t see him in the rotation when Cody and Lamelo come back. Hell he may be done next game with how poorly he played tonight. It’s not just the missed shots it’s the missed reads. He’s not good at find or creating open shots for his teammates. Only positive is that his defensive effort is improved.

 

[Incursio007]

He’s really not giving the Hornets much incentive to stick with him during this tough stretch. It’s painful to watch, especially as someone who is a big believer in his talent.

A veteran mentor should be helping with things like dealing with the media, how to interact with fans etc, how to deal with pro coaches, etc

He should not need a mentor to tell him that drinking and driving is not a good idea.

Young men who became rich overnight and have to deal with navigating an extremely high pressure job at a very young age need mentors for all kinds of things.
