Monroe was reportedly put through a routine number of sobriety tests by the arresting officers and he allegedly managed to botch each one: Reciting the alphabet was a chore, counting backward was also a feat, and walking in a straight line was a next-to-impossible task for the NBA baller, states a police report.
According to Monroe, he had only consumed two glasses of wine at the time of his arrest, but his blood alcohol level reportedly read 0.089, and the legal limit in Michigan is 0.08.
Monroe, who apologized for his DUI, was suspended for two games. The big man is entering his fifth season with the Pistons, and only recently, signed a qualifying offer with the organization for a reported $5.4 million.
