Return to Cleveland is "breath of fresh air for Delonte West


Posted Sep 28 2009 6:38PM

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio (AP) -- Cavaliers guard Delonte West does not want to discuss his recent arrest on gun possession charges but says he has resumed taking medication for bipolar disorder.

West was arrested in Maryland on Sept. 17 near his home after police found he was carrying two concealed handguns and a shotgun in a guitar case after they pulled West over on a traffic violation. He was booked with two misdemeanors.

At the Cavaliers media day Monday, West declined to comment about his legal trouble. He blamed his problems to being off his routine and said he is "back to taking my meds."

West passed his physical and said he is focusing on the Cavaliers and playing basketball. He said being back in Cleveland was "a breath of fresh air."
