Phoenix, AZ (My Sportsbook) - The Phoenix Suns have suspended guard Jason Richardson for one game without pay, just one day after he was arrested on allegations he was driving 90 mph in a 35 mph with his three-year-old son unrestrained in his vehicle's back seat. Richardson, who is third on the Suns at 15.6 points per game, was arrested and booked into the Scottsdale City Jail Sunday night, according to the Arizona Republic. The newspaper reports police first clocked Richardson traveling at 67 mph in a 40 mph zone before his vehicle turned onto another street. Then, Richardson's vehicle reached 90 mph. He was reportedly charged with endangerment, reckless driving, failure to use a child seat and two charges of excessive speed. Because of the suspension, Richardson will miss Tuesday's home game against the Los Angeles Clippers.
