Hours after it was reported that he had signed with the Shanghai Sharks, Eric Bledsoe was arrested for domestic violence after allegedly slapping his girlfriend, according to a report from a TMZ.
Police in Lost Hills, CA responded to a call late Wednesday night where a victim claimed she had been slapped by her boyfriend. Bledsoe was booked and has since been bonded out. The girlfriend posted pictures on her Instagram, but the post has since been deleted.
The Portland Trail Blazers are expected to waive Eric Bledsoe ahead of his approaching guarantee date, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic.
Bledsoe will become a free agent once the move becomes official, and according to Charania, several teams are expected to pursue him. Bledsoe will add some veteran experience in the backcourt wherever he lands, but his days of being a fantasy prospect are likely behind him. We will have more updates on his situation as they become available.
Eric Bledsoe (left Achilles tendinopathy) has been ruled out for the remainder of the season, the team announced.
Bledsoe has yet to make his Blazers debut, and we now know that he won't be doing so this season. The team said that Bledsoe received a platelet-rich plasma injection on Wednesday, March 23 to address the tendinopathy in his left Achilles tendon which will officially end his season. Bledsoe appeared in 54 games for the Clippers this season, averaging 9.9 points on 42.1% shooting from the floor, 31.3% shooting from three, and, 76.1% from the free-throw line to go with 3.4 rebounds, 4.2 assists, and 1.2 steals.
Eric Bledsoe (left Achilles tendinopathy) is reportedly not especially close to making his Blazers debut.
Bledsoe has missed his last seven games and that number is set to increase with Bledsoe still not given a timetable for his return. We’ll call him out indefinitely until we get a positive update, but this won’t affect much as far as fantasy basketball goes.
