Kings F Nocioni arrested for DUI

Sports Network | November 5, 2009

Sacramento, CA (Sports Network) - Sacramento Kings forward Andres Nocioni was arrested on Thursday morning just after the team played the Atlanta Hawks.

Nocioni was released later Thursday after posting bail. According to a report from the Sacramento Bee, Nocioni was weaving within his lane and had an odor of alcohol when speaking with a police officer.

The 29-year-old released a statement through the team saying he was apologetic for his actions.

Nocioni was acquired by Sacramento last season from Chicago in a trade that sent Brad Miller to the Bulls. In 379 career games with the Bulls and Kings over six seasons, Nocioni has averaged 11.8 points and 5.0 rebounds.
