Pinkney arrested on suspicion of DUI

Former Nevada Wolf Pack basketball player Kevinn Pinkney was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence in Reno early Thursday morning, according to Reno police.

Pinkney, 23, who played six games for the Boston Celtics on a 10-day contract April 4-13, was spotted at Sutro and Carville weaving in and out of his travel lane at 1:53 a.m. Thursday. He was given field sobriety tests, which he failed and he was booked for DUI, failing to maintain a lane and careless driving, according to the police report.
He was released on his own recognizance at 6:45 a.m. Thursday.
Pinkney played for Nevada from 2001 to 2005. He was a member of teams that won 85 games, which was a record for a Nevada player until Nick Fazekas and Kyle Shiloh broke that mark this season.
