Looks like we have another celebrity sports scandal on our hands. NBA All-Star Carmelo Anthony was arrested in Denver yesterday for a possible DUI, according to ESPN.COM. Cops pulled him over on Interstate 25 for allegedly weaving and failing to dim his lights.

After failing a series of sobriety tests, Carmelo was charged and taken to police headquarters. Could the reckless behavior have anything to do with the fact that Carmelo's team, The Denver Nuggets, had just wrapped up a less than stellar game? The troubled star is due in court on May 14, according to ESPN. I guess it's time to call in the legal team.

Guess ‘Melo isnt so mellow after a lousy game. This will obviously result in some form of community service punishment. No problems for Anthony since the NBA players do so much of that as it is.
