articleMultiple criminal charges were dropped Monday against former NBA guard Ben Gordon, who was arrested in 2023 after authorities say he began behaving erratically in a Connecticut juice shop. His lawyer, Darnell Crosland, said Gordon has been dedicated to making progress with his mental health issues since the arrest. Gordon was arrested at a Stamford juice shop on his 40th birthday, just hours after UConn won its fifth NCAA men’s basketball championship. Police said several 911 callers reported that Gordon was acting aggressively and bizarrely, and he continued to act erratically when officers arrived. The third overall pick in the 2004 NBA draft by the Chicago Bulls, Gordon played 11 seasons in the league.
