Vitor Faverani is reportedly the latest NBA player to land himself in trouble this offseason.

According to Spanish daily La Opinión de Málaga, the Brazilian center was arrested in Valencia, Spain on Sunday after running a red light with his car and subsequently colliding with a bus. Although no one was hurt in the accident, Faverani apparently tested three times above the legal blood-alcohol limit

The Boston Celtics, who signed Faverani to a three-year contract last summer that will pay him $2.1 million this season, have yet to issue a statement.
