ISU G Boozer leaves team after arrest

NCAA Basketball Betting Lines

05/03/2010 - Ames, IA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Iowa State guard Charles Boozer has decided to leave the team to seek treatment for undisclosed reasons.

"I want to apologize for my actions that put Iowa State University in a negative light," Boozer said in a statement on Monday. "I have decided that the best course action right now is to finish my semester and then seek treatment."

The 6-foot-3 junior's announcement comes after he was reportedly arrested Saturday on charges of assault. According to The Ames Tribune, Boozer was arrested after a woman informed police that he slapped and kicked her.

"After visiting with Charles last night, I feel that his decision to leave the program is in the best interest for both parties," said new Iowa State head coach Fred Hoiberg. "Charles had a terrible lapse in judgment and I sincerely hope that he learns from his mistake and can land on his feet."

Boozer averaged 3.5 points 1.5 rebounds in 16 games last season before a torn ACL ended his season.

He is the younger brother of Utah Jazz star Carlos Boozer.
