The Suns forward signed a new three-year contract earlier this month.
Phoenix Suns forward P.J. Tucker was arrested for "super extreme DUI" in May when a blood test showed the 29-year-old registered a blood alcohol level of .222, according to the Arizona Republic. Tucker was pulled over by Scottsdale police after running a stop sign and straddling two lanes on his way home from a night club.
The threshold for a "super extreme DUI" in Arizona is .200. A driver is legally drunk if his or her blood alcohol level is above .08. Tucker reportedly failed a sobriety test and displayed slurred speech and a lack of balance while emitting a heavy odor of alcohol.
The report of the May arrest comes just two weeks after the Suns locked up Tucker with a three-year, $16.5 million contract in free agency. Last season was Tucker's second in Phoenix, and he posted career highs in points, rebounds and assists per game while averaging over 30 minutes per night.
