Timberwolves forward Taurean Prince arrested at Miami airport

Timberwolves forward Taurean Prince was arrested Thursday in Miami.

The six-year NBA veteran was taken into custody at Miami International Airport on a fugitive out-of-state warrant that came from Texas. Prince is a native of San Antonio and attended college at Baylor.

It was unknown what charge Prince faced from the warrant, and was not immediately clear what he was doing at the airport. He was booked under his legal name, Taurean Waller-Prince, at 7:51 p.m. at Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center adjacent to the airport, according to Miami-Dade County's Corrections and Rehabilitation website.

Prince played his first season for the Wolves in 2021-22 and was an important player off the bench as they returned to the playoffs for the first time since 2018.
