Former NBA Star Delonte West Has Been Arrested Again

Sad news!

As noted above, this isn’t Delonte West’s first arrest rodeo. The former Dallas Mavericks player has a history of police run-ins. In November 2022 he made headlines for being arrested twice within just two weeks. The first arrest was for trespassing and public intoxication and the second was also for public intoxication. Unfortunately, those two incidents are just the tip of the iceberg regarding West’s rap sheet and life struggles.

He’s also reportedly dealing with homelessness, addiction, and bipolar disorder. In the past Mark Cuban — owner of the Dallas Mavericks — has tried to help West, and even purportedly got him into a rehab program. However, in October 2022 the billionaire noted he had to take a step back from the situation, claiming,

“It’s a struggle for him. I mean, addiction is awful. And mental illness is awful. He’s at the point in his life where he’s got to want to be helped.”
