Auburn Basketball Star Tahaad Pettiford Arrested on DUI Charge in Lee County
Auburn basketball standout Tahaad Pettiford, widely regarded as the future face of the Tigers program, was arrested early Saturday morning in Lee County on a charge of driving under the influence (DUI).
According to the Lee County Sheriff’s Office, Pettiford was booked at midnight and later released after posting a $1,000 bond. Specific details surrounding the incident have not yet been made public.
Auburn head coach Bruce Pearl addressed the situation in a statement to ESPN: “We are aware of the situation, and we will handle it internally with Tahaad and his family. We take these matters seriously and will learn and grow from it moving forward.”
Pettiford, just 19 years old, recently withdrew his name from the NBA Draft, signaling his commitment to Auburn for another season. In his freshman year, he averaged an impressive 11.6 points per game, helping lead the Tigers to a memorable run to the Final Four in the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament. With the departure of star Johni Broome, Pettiford is expected to be the cornerstone of Auburn’s next chapter.
As of now, no further information has been released regarding the circumstances of the arrest or potential disciplinary actions from the university. Auburn fans and the college basketball community will be watching closely as the story develops.
