Overview
- An incident report says Brooks was clocked at 85 mph in a 45 zone just after midnight on Jan. 12 in Scottsdale, with the officer warning of a potential “catastrophic collision.”
- Bodycam from the stop shows Brooks being cited for reckless driving and excessive speed before being allowed to leave; court records set a hearing for early April.
- In a separate March 6 stop, Scottsdale police arrested Brooks on suspicion of DUI after traffic violations, noting his car “smelled like a dispensary” on bodycam.
- A breath test registered 0.0 BAC, a blood draw was taken for further analysis, and the charging decision rests with the Scottsdale city prosecutor.
- Brooks has not played since Feb. 21 due to a fractured left hand and is expected to be re-evaluated near the end of March or early April, with no NBA discipline announced.
