Denver Police ticketed Carmelo Anthony for speeding Saturday, the second traffic offense the Denver Nugget has racked up within three weeks.

The latest incident occurred about 4:15 p.m. when a Denver patrolman pulled Anthony over in the 2400 block of South Santa Fe after clocking his vehicle at 15 to 19 miles over the 45 mph speed limit, police said.

Denver police spokesman Sonny Jackson said the ticket does not require Anthony to make a court appearance. He can plead guilty and pay a $130 fine if he mails it in within 20 days, Jackson said.

However, the violation edges the Nugget closer to a situation where he might face a suspension of his driver's licence.

According to the Colorado Division of Motor Vehicles Web site, driving 15 to 19 miles in excess of the speed limit is a four-point violation.

Anthony, 23, already faces a possible 12-point violation after he was arrested April 14 on suspicion of drunken driving. In that case, a patrolman stopped him for driving erratically at 4 a.m. on southbound Interstate 25. That case is pending in Denver County Court.

The minimum the number of points to cause a suspension for an adult driver is 12 within a 12 month period, according to the DMV's point-suspension brochure.

It has been a difficult month for Anthony both on and off the court. His DUI arrest came just two games before the end of the regular season.

The Nuggets then lost to the Los Angeles Lakers in four straight games. After Game 3, Anthony complained that "we quit."

Oh wow a traffic ticket.

I do 15-20 miles over in a 45 mph zone almost every morning. Why make a big deal out of this?

SMH

To you, it may just be a speeding ticket. But to YT, it's a reason to stop this guy and possibly make the "big bust". Next time, maybe they will find marijuana in the car. This is his second speeding ticket in less than a month, on top of the DUI charges he received. So, I don't look at it as "just a ticket".

Eagerly awaiting KSmith's response

$130 ticket

Maybe he need that wake up call...

I can't say anything because I once received 4 traffic tickets in one month.

Jag, thats exactly what I was thinking

A FCUKING SPEEDING TICKET....THIS IS NEWSWORTHY?

This is where yuor previous actions come back to haunt you. He has a DUI, and other infractions and this then becomes newsworthy. It's why atheletes especially black ones have to stay above the board.

Glad he wasn't ticked in Philly.

Bingo!

It's a war out here. That's why....

(see Rev Wright crap for a reminder.)

Carmelo is still young and makes bad choices.

He will mature off the court like he is maturing on the court.
