The ongoing run-ins with the law continue for Michael Beasley.

Since signing a three-year, $18 million contract with Phoenix last summer, the Suns forward was cited for multiple driving offences in January and has also been investigated for sexual assault.

Now Beasley was arrested (and released) early Tuesday morning for suspicion of marijuana possession in Scottsdale, Ariz.
Even before his arrival in Phoenix, Beasley had a checkered past as he was ticketed for marijuana possession and speeding in 2011 in the Minneapolis suburb of Minnetonka while he was a member of the Timberwolves.

Beasley was also fined $50,000 before he ever set foot on an NBA court as was involved in a marijuana-related incident at the Rookie Transition Program back in 2008 just months after being drafted by the Miami Heat.
