Memphis' Sincere Parker arrested over assault charge
Parker, 22, was arrested and held without bond in Shelby County Jail, before his bond was set at $120,000 on Sunday, per The Commercial-Appeal.
A woman filed a police report with the Memphis police department on June 12, stemming from an incident on May 27.
The woman alleged that Parker pushed her, slapped her and choked her before smashing her phone, leading to a vandalism charge as well as aggravated assault.
Parker averaged 12.2 points over 34 games coming off the bench for the Cowboys in 2024-25. The season prior to that, he averaged an even more robust 15.9 points per game for Saint Louis in the Atlantic 10.
The Memphis athletic department issued a short statement in response.
"The University of Memphis is aware of the situation and cannot comment on an active investigation."
The Tigers went 29-6 (16-2 American Athletic Conference) with a first-round NCAA Tournament exit at the hands of Colorado State, 78-70, last season.

A Judge Gave a One-Word Answer. It Torpedoed the Etan Patz Case.
The 12 jurors considering the fate of a man charged with killing 6-year-old Etan Patz in a SoHo basement wanted guidance. The defendant, Pedro Hernandez, had told investigators over and over that he had killed the boy in 1979. But his first confession came before the police had told him of his right to remain silent. Investigators quickly read him his rights and got him to repeat his words for a video camera. Now, in 2017, the jury asked the judge whether, if they found that Mr. Hernandez's first confession was not voluntary, they should then disregard the later recorded version. The judge, Maxwell Wiley, responded, 'The answer is, 'no.'' On Monday, a federal appeals court said that Justice Wiley's one-word answer had failed to explain a Supreme Court precedent that governs such serial confessions. The three judges ordered that Mr. Hernandez be released from his 25-years-to-life sentence or get a new trial. The stunning ruling revived a seemingly settled case that has frustrated law enforcement officials in New York City for the greater part of 45 years. The investigation into Etan's vanishing — his body has never been found — has been filled with sensational turns, tornadoes of tips and alternative suspects. For Justice Wiley, the decision was the coda to a two-decade career on the bench that ended in April. Reached by phone, Justice Wiley said he had 'happily retired.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
