There is never a good time to get arrested on a charge of domestic assault. But Jeff Taylor might have picked the absolute worst.
Taylor was arrested Thursday morning at a Marriott hotel in Michigan. The Charlotte Hornet forward was arraigned in East Lansing District Court and charged with one count of domestic assault, one count of assault and one count of malicious destruction of property. He was released from jail on a $5,000 bond.

Hornets this afternoon announced they are distancing themselves from Taylor during the investigation:

He pleaded guilty and will probably get probation. My guess is the league will suspend him for 10 games.
