The arrest occurred hours after the Suns’ 105-103 loss to the Chicago Bulls. Brooks — who has been sidelined since late February with a broken hand — did not play in the contest.
Brooks, 30, is in his first season with the Suns after being involved in the seven-team trade that resulted in Kevin Durant also being dealt to Phoenix. In 50 games this season, Brooks is averaging 20.9 points.
