A plea and arraignment hearing has been set for Hawks coach Mike Budenholzer.
The case will be heard on July 29 at 9am in Fulton County State Court. Budenholzer faces misdemeanor charges of driving under the influence alcohol less safe and defective or no taillights from an arrest Aug. 28, 2013 after being stopped by police at 10:30pm at 10th Street and Crescent Avenue in Midtown.
The case was moved to Fulton County State Court at the request of the prosecutor’s office during the initial hearing in Atlanta Municipal Court in October 2013. The statute of limitations was due to expire in three months when the case was placed on the court docket last month.
Budenholzer faces up to a year in jail, as much as a $1,000 fine, a driver’s license suspension and community services for a first-time offense. He would also face a suspension from the NBA, likely two games as those received by current Bucks coach Jason Kidd and former player Devin Ebanks.
Meanwhile, former Sacramento Kings coach Mike Malone is getting a second interview for the Denver Nuggets’ coaching job.
Sources told ESPN.com that Malone, who had his first interview with Denver last week before the start of the NBA Finals, has solidified himself as a top candidate for the job along with Nuggets interim coach Melvin Hunt.
