Jeff Adrien‘s name is more recognizable this week than it has been his entire NBA career. Adrien, who averaged 4.6 points and 4.3 rebounds throughout his career, was arrested in Los Angeles for stealing a Mercedes from a valet stand, according to TMZ Sports.
Law enforcement says that Adrien, 29, was waiting outside of a West Hollywood hotel before jacking the Mercedes. He then went on a six-hour joyride before returning it. Someone eventually figured out what went down and notified the authorities. The actual owner of the Mercedes’ car was returned with minor damage and the smell of weed.
As a result, Adrien was arrested for grand theft auto and posted $25,000 bail. He played for the Timberwolves just last year, and it’s possible that an NBA team won’t take another shot at signing him after this bizarre stunt.
