Just when you thought things couldn’t get worse for Josh Howard…
Mavericks forward Josh Howard was arrested Thursday night in his hometown of Winston-Salem, N.C., after police said he was street racing.
Howard is charged with reckless driving and with speed competition – the legal term for drag racing – after police said he was going 94 mph in a 55 mph zone. He was released from the Forsyth County jail on a written promise to appear in court Sept. 23.
The Mavericks had no comment on the incident. A message left with Howard’s agent was not returned.
A police officer saw a black Lexus and a silver Volkswagen speeding along U.S. 421 in Winston-Salem late Thursday night. Howard was identified as the driver of the Lexus. Authorities did not identify the other driver.
