Impact Per Boone's reporting, the incident occurred in Richmond, KY on May 12, when Harrell was pulled over by a police officer who discovered marijuana in his vehicle. Police subsequently discovered "three pounds of marijuana in vacuum sealed bags" in Harrell's vehicle. Per Kentucky law, possessing that amount is a Class D Felony punishable by one-to-five years in prison or a fine of up to $10,000. The Hornets are yet to comment on the situation, and at this juncture it's unclear if Harrell could face any discipline from the team or from the NBA. The 28-year-old is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason after splitting the 2021-22 campaign between Charlotte and Washington.
