The complicated crossroads of Ty Lawson’s fallen career
Posted Mar 14, 2017
Ty Lawson has a drinking problem. Or rather, Ty Lawson’s problem is drinking. When Lawson was in Denver, he was a legit star. He was the starting point guard for a Nuggets team that won 57 games, arguably its best player, and putting up All-Star-type numbers. Then the arrests started. On Jan. 23, 2015, Lawson was arrested on suspicion of DUI in Denver.
