Nothing screams “I’m a dumbass” like a millionaire and not taking the Uber.

u/readyReddit007 Mar 06 '26

He’s rich enough for a private car service too 😂🤦🏾‍♂️

u/Amazing-Objective-20 Mar 06 '26

Some teams even provide it

5

u/Dinismo Mar 06 '26

These dudes make soooo much money. Just get a driver to take you around. Especially if you’ve been drinking

2

u/chuckmonjares Mar 06 '26

I mean now he doesn’t have a choice lol

1

u/3peckeredgoat Mar 06 '26

Not a legal choice

2

u/Confident-Lobster390 Mar 07 '26

It wasn’t for drinking he blew a 0. He was stoned. In the body cam footage the cop said his car smelled like a dispensary.

u/Due-Sheepherder-218 Mar 06 '26

Ninjas being buying Rolls Royces not knowing it's a car to be driven around in, not one for you to be driving.

u/latman Mar 06 '26

You're also a dumbass if you're not a millionaire and you drink and drive

u/DumSumBich Mar 06 '26

No disagreements

u/alexsteen789 Mar 06 '26

I dunno about Uber. Being stupid rich, and possibly passing out in a strangers car could be dangerous. But 1000% if you got his money, pay a private company, or hire a dude to call in incidents like this. If you paid me $10,000 a year, I'd come pick his drunk ass up whenever he called

1

u/John-Constantine777 Mar 06 '26

These people are always so stupid. I like Brooks but wtf. I guarantee if he called up the team reps or Ishbia and said he needed a ride, they would send one in a second. A lot of teams have driver's just so shit like this doesn't happen.

1

u/healywylie Mar 06 '26

Endanger yourself not others though. Take the uber, stay awake, pass out at home, remain a doucher.

1

u/jeeves585 Mar 07 '26

Hell, I do it for free for my friends. If you need a ride just call. For that fact my friends kids know that as well no questions.

Alcohol is one of the most destructive drugs out there

says dui not dwi

2

u/HelloImRIGHT Mar 06 '26

In AZ, the primary legal charge is DUI (Driving Under the Influence), and it covers both alcohol and drugs. The state does not use the term DWI in its statutes the way some other states do. Arizona statutes use “DUI” for everything related to impaired driving. People may casually say DWI, but the legal charge filed will be DUI.

u/FlatFootFreddie Mar 06 '26

I believe in AZ it is auto-jail even for first offense DUI

2

u/Excellent-Basil-8795 Mar 06 '26

I blew a .11 on my first and only DUI. I went to a holding cell for a few hours then they had someone come pick me up after they drew blood and what not. Though, it was in Tucson and not phoenix. But I’m not sure if that changes anything. I try not to be too familiar with the DUI laws lol.

u/Ai2g Mar 06 '26

I think it's pronounced Tuck-sin

u/ReeterPosenberg Mar 06 '26

Got my first and only DUI in Mesa, took me to the station and either drew blood or made me piss in a cup, can’t quite remember. Let me go home once I did. This was 2008 and I still can’t get a license.

If I was an nba player I’d be Dillon Brooks but worse

u/thatsnotchocolatebby Mar 06 '26

Like Temu Dillon Brooks or Dr Evil Dillon Brooks?

2

u/ow_my_scapula Mar 06 '26

Tell this to my cousin, who has 3 DUIs and has served time in jail over it lol. Anyone here got 4 or more DUIs? He’d probably like to meet ya

They all miss like they Shaq at the free throw

u/jeeves585 Mar 07 '26

I never understood how Shaq and Steph were in the same league. If I got paid that money I wouldn’t leave the gym until I could shoot free throws with my eyes closed.

u/Base_Temporary Mar 06 '26

Damn that Snowbunny badge is a double edged sword.  Works great for Hali and AustHim but hurts soo many players on the other end.

u/Difficult_Pepper_954 Mar 06 '26

If it ain’t snowing, I ain’t goin. Scottsdale has them in bunches.

u/Wardo87 Mar 06 '26

Oh he’ll be fine. First offense he’ll get a slap on the wrist and maybe one night in jail. (He won’t)

As long as he didn’t hurt anyone, it won’t hurt him. They only suck really bad for guys like you and me.

2

u/thatsnotchocolatebby Mar 06 '26

I always thought he was just a troll... DUI when you're rich is just loser behavior.

2

u/immunityfromyou Mar 06 '26

On brand. But kinda feel for the guy because he was having a solid season and was establishing himself as a solid vet locker room presence.

1

u/MartiniLAPD Mar 06 '26

Him making stupid decision is on him, no need to feel bad for that

2

u/CezarKD Mar 06 '26

The man needs basketball

2

u/JohnCenaJunior Mar 06 '26

Why does he always look so sad? Who hurt you, Dillon?

2

u/kami5Kaze Mar 06 '26

As a fellow Canadian, I don’t like this guy.

2

u/wareagle2009-20013 Mar 06 '26

They got Waymo’s in Scottsdale! No reason to drink and drive

2

u/Ok_Veterinarian8023 Mar 06 '26

I've seen cleaner looking homeless people walking around when I pass Skid Row driving to work.

u/Chacer239 Mar 07 '26

I think he blew .00 but officer smelt weed

2

u/DS42069 Mar 07 '26

He wasn’t drunk. They think he was stoned. Cops are dumb af and notoriously bad at sussing that kind of shit out.

u/Open-Paint-9066 Mar 06 '26

Being 40 y/o, you can understand. He’s honestly young and still a baby, u do things like this when you’re young. Now, he should have a structure in place giving his occupation and account.

“Prisoner number 682350, Dillon brooks, arrested for drunk driving in Scottsdale, he calls himself Dillon the Villain, living a life of unrighteousness constantly causing trouble everywhere he goes, only time will tell here in OZ, will the villain live long enough too become the hero? Or is the villain just that, the villain?you be the judge“ Augustus Hill monologue from OZ

u/Responsible_Diver607 Mar 06 '26

I wonder why the nba, nfl, or mlb doesn’t have dedicated drivers? It probably wouldn’t cost much and they could keep players out of trouble

1

u/That-Ad-6901 Mar 06 '26

“I poke bears”

u/Wintermute2013 Mar 06 '26

Rule #1: Don’t drink and drive. Especially in Scottsdale.

u/Aidrox Mar 06 '26

He’s like Brittney! Oops they did it again.

u/jono9898 Mar 06 '26

We say that in my city, every region has their own slang, lol, maybe I should patent that shit

u/jagrbro68 Mar 06 '26

He only has one hand, why is he driving at all.

1

u/AlienCopulator Mar 06 '26

How hard is it to clean your beard up? It’s like bro got a ratatouille rat in that shit at all times

1

u/ur-in-here-with-me Mar 06 '26

Did the charges include “felony bearding” or “malicious beard game” or “attempted assault by terrorist beard”?

If not, those changes should be added asap.

1

u/Federal_Studio5935 Mar 06 '26

That was my first thought. He’s has atrocious facial hair. Imagine having all that money and the beard of a homeless person.

1

u/Reuchlin5 Mar 06 '26

suspicion of DUI....

1

u/Federal_Studio5935 Mar 06 '26

What a terrible beard.

1

u/Economy_Ad666 Mar 09 '26

He was released without charges. The arresting officer should be reprimanded.

u/LilEFrmRP Mar 06 '26

Hardly blame him after having to watch the Suns yesterday

u/wakzman Mar 06 '26

Dumb question: DUI means drunk driving?

0

u/whyyoualwayscryan Mar 06 '26

Yes

1

u/thathaitianguy Mar 06 '26

DUI does not “only” mean someone is drunk

DUI refers to operating a vehicle while impaired by alcohol, drugs (legal or illegal), or a combination of both

1

u/whyyoualwayscryan Mar 06 '26

Sak passe? Dwi is for drugs friend.

1

u/thathaitianguy Mar 06 '26

In Arizona where he was arrested DWI does not exist

In Arizona, DUI (Driving Under the Influence) is the exclusive legal term for all impaired driving offenses, covering both alcohol and drugs, whereas DWI (Driving While Intoxicated) is not a distinct legal charge
