In news that probably surprised no one, former Florida Gators standout and current Chicago Bulls flop Joakim Noah smokes the hippie lettuce.

According to Gainesville police spokesman Sgt. Rick Roberts, Noah – best known for his bizarre dreadlocked hair and love of Bob Marley – was spotted on a sidewalk at 1:50 a.m. on Sunday with a plastic cup containing an amber drink.

He was arrested for violating city law and during a search at the police station, officers found marijuana in his pocket, said Roberts.

Noah was released after signing a notice to appear before a judge. He could face up to six months in jail and a $500 US fine for the marijuana charge.

For those of you who are into the specifics, Noah was apparently drinking cognac (no word yet if it was a banana cognac) and had 20 grams of weed on his person. In related news, Josh Howard was not around, but could've been there within 15 minutes.

While Noah is chilling out, other NBA players are doing the business in the playoffs. Do some NBA Basketball betting today!
