Delonte West Arrested Again, Released On Bond To Treatment Facility
Delonte West Arrested In Virgina Released On Bond To Treatment Facility
UPDATE
11:03 AM PT -- West's attorney, Brandon Sloane, tells TMZ Sports he's confident the details of the case will show there's much more to the story ... but the ex-NBAer is using the experience as a wake-up call to seek professional help.
The attorney says he is "proud of Delonte as he has used this process to seek out help and been released on bond to a treatment facility. We all look forward to his continued progress, and Delonte is particularly appreciative of the numerous thoughts and well wishes over the last several weeks."
Delonte West has found himself in trouble with the law again -- the former NBA star was arrested last month in Virginia after he allegedly robbed an individual -- TMZ Sports has learned.
Law enforcement tells us they received a call from a person who reported getting robbed and assaulted in the 5900 block of Richmond Highway in Belle Haven ... and claimed the culprit ran off on them.
When cops arrived on the scene, they learned the individual in question didn't get far. The caller pointed out the man across the street as the one they were looking for. It turned out to be West, whom officials in the area have unfortunately become familiar with over the years.
We're told he was taken into custody without further incident, and he was released on a $1,000 recognizance bond. They say the total amount taken from the victim was around $23.
He's due back in court in March. We reached out to his lawyer for comment ... but have not heard back.
As we've previously reported ... West is no stranger to cops in Virginia. In November, he was arrested after being found unconscious. When cops offered to take him to the hospital, he refused, so they opted to arrest him for his own safety ... as they said he was very intoxicated.
In 2024, he was put in cuffs twice. In June ... he was busted after officers tried to serve a warrant on the 42-year-old for violating the conditions of his release and resisting arrest. In November, he was booked after being accused of trespassing.
