Tyreke Evans pleads no contest to reckless driving

Basketball Betting Lines

07/23/2010 - Sacramento, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sacramento Kings guard Tyreke Evans, the reigning rookie of the Year, pled no contest to reckless driving.

Sacramento district attorney Jan Scully made the announcement Friday, saying Evans was ordered to serve three years probation, 80 hours of alternative sentencing and will have to participate in two California Highway Patrol driving programs. Evans' license was suspended for 30 days.

The plea stems from a May 31 traffic stop when Evans was driving up to 130 m.p.h. while crossing lanes on I-80. A motorcycle officer pulled over Evans after he passed a number of vehicles.

"This kind of reckless driving puts the safety of citizens who travel our roads and highways at enormous risk," deputy district attorney Suzanne Salazar stated. "By sentencing the defendant to participate in CHP's driving program for young drivers, he will be required to educate others that this type of driving is dangerous and unacceptable."

Selected with the fourth overall pick out of Memphis as a freshman, the 20- year-old Evans averaged 20.1 points, 5.8 assists and 5.3 rebounds in starting each of the 72 games in which he appeared.
