WASHINGTON, DC
WASHINGTON (WJLA/AP) - After it was first reported by ABC7 News, District of Columbia police confirmed that CBS basketball analyst and former NBA player Greg Anthony has been arrested and charged with soliciting a prostitute.

CBS announced Saturday morning that Anthony has been suspended indefinitely following his arrest on solicitation charges.

A CBS spokeswoman says "Greg Anthony will not be working again for CBS this season."

Turner Sports also suspended the TV commentator and says it "will have no further comment."

ABC7's D.C. Bureau chief Sam Ford broke the story Friday night and ABC7's Jennifer Donelan confirmed further details from her sources.

Anthony was arrested at 5:46 p.m. on Friday.

A police report shows that Anthony was arrested inside a room at a DoubleTree by Hilton hotel at 1515 Rhode Island NW in downtown Washington, less than a mile from the White House.

The police report says Anthony, 47, is suspected of using a computer as part of the crime.

Anthony issued a statement Saturday apologizing to his wife, family and colleagues.

"I made a mistake," he said. "With this lapse of judgment, I embarrassed many, including myself. I will work to regain the trust that I have lost, and the first step is saying that I am sorry."


Saturday, Lt. Kelvin Cusick told The Associated Press that Anthony faces a misdemeanor solicitation charge that's punishable by up to 180 days in jail.

Cusick says Anthony was released Friday evening. No further details were available.
According to the NCAA website, Anthony was scheduled to announce the Michigan State-Maryland men's basketball game Saturday in nearby College Park, Maryland.

In the NBA, Anthony played 11 seasons with six teams from 1991-92 to 2001-02, including the New York Knicks and Portland Trail Blazers. The guard and defensive specialist averaged 7.3 points per game.

In college he was on the UNLV team that won the 1990 NCAA tournament, with teammates Larry Johnson and Stacey Augmon.

fukked up. But I aint gonna judge the dude. just cause he's married don't mean he's happily married. you never know what's going on in a persons home. these two people could hate each other for all we know. yea it's possible that his wife is a loyal great woman who never did him dirty....it's also possible that she's just as grimy as he is :yeshrug:.......either way, i'm just glad i'm never getting married. it's a no win situation for us men.

Debauchery is a part of Charlie Sheen's image, it's a major part of his appeal. Greg's whole TV image is as a conservative family man, you can't play that role and get caught up.

If this was Charles Barkley he would have been on TV a week later making jokes about it with Kenny and Ernie, because nobody would be surprised. It would be more humorous then anything.


I agree somewhat, but I'm calling bullshyt overall on this line of reasoning simply because Charlie Sheen also has a extensive, lengthy criminal history involving domestic abuse of women which goes far beyond just some wild partying, using drugs & fukking random bytches.

Now please explain after reading this how Charlie Sheen wasn't even suspended or terminated from 2 and Half Men after all these incidents occurred but Greg Anthony gets "suspended indefinitely" for a misdemeanor solicitation charge?

LOL
i dont know that Greg Anthony is viewed as a conservative family man. He had his fair share of scraps in the NBA.

He's just viewed as an ex player whos a good analyst and he's held to a code of conduct to not put CBS in a bad light, on or off-air.

And Barkley got suspended for a little while a few years ago after he did something and got arrested. Even so, TNT isn't as "majestic" as CBS
