NBA Obsessed takes you into the hit and run game of NBA Basketball.

Carmelo, Carmelo.

Carmelo Anthony was arrested Monday on suspension of driving under the influence of alcohol.

Hey, Carmelo Anthony, take a shot, should look like this

The Denver Nuggets forward was arrested on Interstate 25, police said. He was alone in the car and pulled over for weaving and not dimming his lights.

Detective Sharon Hahn said Anthony failed a series of sobriety tests. He was charged with DUI, then taken to police headquarters before being released to a “sober responsible party,” Hahn said. Anthony is due in court May 14.

Recently he had other problems.

On Saturday, he committed a flagrant foul against Utah’s Deron Williams that changed the course of a close game. The Jazz went on to win 124-97.

Last season Carmelo was involved in a brawl with the Knicks and dropped the Knicks Mardy Collins and was rewarded with a 15 game suspension.

In February, Carmelo Anthony was pulled over for being 25 over the speed limit.

Hey, maybe time for this 5 time All Star to grow up.

Come on, Carmelo, stick to scoring with the basketball and leave that other stuff behind. Denver needs you! Allen Iverson needs you. The NBA playoffs beckon you. Don’t mess it up.
