Former NBA player Oliver Miller, known as The Big O, is facing charges for allegedly pistol-whipping a guest at a Maryland BBQ.
Miller, 41, was charged with first and second degree assault for his alleged involvement in the altercation that took place Sunday in Arnold, 56kms east of Washington, D.C.
The former Phoenix Suns and Detroit Pistons centre was not at the scene when police arrived but he was tracked down and arrested via eyewitness accounts and a 9mm Glock magazine left at the scene.
Miller also faces charges of reckless endangerment, use of a handgun in a violent crime and other gun possession charges, according to the report.
The 6-foot-9 former University of Arkansas standout played nine seasons in the NBA, most recently with Minnesota in 2003-04.
