The NBA announced it has suspended former Miami Heat center Willie Reed for six games on Tuesday due to a domestic violence charge involving his wife last summer in Miami.
Reed, who played 71 games for the Heat last season, was arrested and charged with misdemeanor battery on August 5th in Miami.
According to an NBA press release, Reed entered into a pretrial diversion program in October to resolve the criminal charge against him.
The release stated: “The NBA conducted its own investigation into this matter, reviewing all available materials and interviewing the parties involved.
