Former Oregon Ducks Star Dillon Brooks Arrested on DUI Suspicion
- Police stopped a vehicle on Scottsdale Road and arrested Phoenix Suns forward Dillon Brooks on suspicion of DUI at 1:33 a.m. on March 6, 2026; he was booked and released around 3:30 a.m., with the city prosecutor's office deciding charges.
- Brooks has been sidelined since Feb. 21 with a fractured left hand and underwent surgery in late February, missing multiple games before Phoenix's March 5 loss.
- Averaging 20.9 points and 3.7 rebounds, Brooks is having a career-best offensive season with 44.0% shooting and a $21,124,110 base salary on a four-year, $86,000,001 contract.
- The Phoenix Suns said they are gathering information and had no further comment, with limited on-court impact as Brooks is already sidelined for March 6 and March 8.
- TMZ first reported the arrest on March 6, 2026, and other outlets like FOX 10 Phoenix later carried the story; sources emphasize this is a reported arrest, not a league suspension or court outcome.
