Sacramento Kings forward Andres Nocioni has been arrested on suspicion of drunk driving on Thursday.

Nocioni was booked into the Sacramento County jail at 3:26 a.m. local time (GMT 0826) Thursday. Sacramento police sergeant Norm Leong said Nocioni was pulled over around 2 a.m. in downtown Sacramento when an officer noticed his car weaving.

The officer noticed an odor of alcohol and conducted a field test before booking Nocioni on suspicion of driving under the influence.

The arrest came hours after the Kings lost a home game to the Atlanta Hawks 113-105 on Wednesday night.

The Kings did not have any immediate comment.

Nocioni averaged 11.8 points per game plus 5 rebounds in career, who was exchanged to Kings from Chicago Bulls halfway last season.
