BYU Guard Kennard Davis Jr. Arrested for Suspected DUI
Provo, Utah (AP) — Brigham Young University starting guard Kennard Davis Jr. was arrested Thursday morning on suspicion of driving under the influence following a two-vehicle crash in Provo, the local police department reported.
The incident occurred around 11:45 a.m. at the intersection of 900 West and Center Street. According to a Provo Police Department statement, officers investigating the crash determined there was probable cause to arrest the 20-year-old Davis, who was driving one of the vehicles. He was transported to the police station, cited for DUI and released for medical treatment of minor injuries sustained in the accident. His vehicle was impounded. The driver of the other car was not hospitalized, police said.
Davis, a 6-foot-6 junior who transferred to BYU from Southern Illinois this year, is in his first season with the seventh-ranked Cougars. The team has started the season 3-0, but Davis missed Tuesday's 85-68 victory over Delaware due to a leg injury. In his two appearances, he has averaged 9.0 points, 1.5 assists and 1.0 rebound per game, including a 12-point outing in an 98-53 win over Holy Cross on Nov. 8.
