"WTVD, citing a police report, said that Redick was arrested at 1:03 a.m. in Durham, N.C., after the former Duke star made an illegal U-turn to avoid a police checkpoint.

The television station reported that Redick is scheduled to appear in a Durham court on July 17."


Where's all the Dookies now????

You would think a Duke education would teach him that its pretty obvious when you make an illegal U-turn to avoid a checkpoint that your avoiding it for something.

Elton Brand has something to say about that.

This would be assuming Redick ever went to class.

Why is anyone shocked by this? He is only padding his resume for the upcoming draft. Next he will get caught with blunts or for socking his girl. Only then will he be NBA ready!

I'm not suprised about this at all... I remember awhile back, I saw a picture of him at some party holding a beer and looking pretty trashed.

WHEW!!!!

Man, when I read the title I thought it was Pokey Reddick. Thank God it wasn't, that would have done serious damage to Pokey's legacy as one of the greatest athletes of our time.

Funny you mentioned that, because I was talking to my friend's brother tonight who goes to Duke. He's friends with some of the guys on the basketball team. He was telling me that Redick smokes like there's no tomorrow, and he wouldn't doubt that he was stoned when pulled over because he got arrested for Driving While Impaired, not Driving While Intoxicated. My friend's brother wouldn't lie, but regardless take this with a grain of salt since I couldn't confirm it for anyone.

They do test, I think. But it hardly catches everything. Think about it this way, many players in the NFL smoke pot. Yet very few are ever caught. It usually takes a mistake by the user to get busted. College testing is much less strict and rigid. It would be no surprise if they could avoid it.

Pokey Reddick is the man. I got to know him pretty well during his stay here with the Thunder.
