Diana Taurasi, star of the Phoenix Mercury women's basketball team, is now facing three drunk driving related charges stemming from her July 2nd arrest. Lab results show that her blood alcohol content was .17%, more than twice the legal limit for intoxication in Arizona. That qualifies as extreme DUI in Arizona.
Taurasi was stopped around 2:30 am for speeding and drifting outside of her traffic lane. She admitted to having had "a few" drinks at a club. She has entered a plea of not guilty to DUI, and is scheduled to appear in court again on July 22nd.
