<p>Wow. Eddy Curry is in all types of trouble. Via <a href="http://www.wlsam.com/Article.asp?id=1894807&spid=">Chicago radio station <span class="caps">WLS</span></a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>For the second time in little more than a month, a Cook County judge has issued an arrest warrant for former Chicago Bull Eddy Curry in a legal case that raises new questions about the <span class="caps">NBA</span> player’s financial woes.</p>
<p>Cook County Circuit Judge Alexander White ordered Curry’s arrest on Monday, after learning Curry failed to sign an agreement to pay the balance of a $660,000 legal settlement reached after he was sued for allegedly having sex with an underage girl.</p>
<p>The case stems from a 2001 relationship the two had when she was 14 and Curry was 18.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The last arrest warrant was dealt with when Curry settled with the plaintiff out of court, but this is ugly. We hear about players struggling with money after their retirement from the league, but Curry’s still under contract and is in severe financial trouble: he apparently hasn’t paid his legal bills, hasn’t paid this woman, defaulted on a $75,000 loan earlier this year, and saw his mansion in the Chicago area go into foreclosure last year. All this while getting paid $11 million a year, despite only playing seven games last year. Worrisome.</p>

<p><span class="datetime">- </span><a class="sbn-auto-link" href="../../../nba/players/21907/Eddy_Curry">Eddy Curry</a>, the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="../../../nba/teams/NYK">New York Knicks</a> big man who played just seven games with the team last year, is wanted by Chicago police after failing to appear at a recent hearing <a target="_blank" href="http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/2454524,eddy-curry-wanted-070110.article">according to the Chicago Sun-Times</a>.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The NBA player remains at large, two weeks after a Cook County Judge issued an arrest warrant for failing to appear at a hearing to pay what’s left in a legal settlement reached after he was sued for allegedly having sex with an underage girl when he was 18, according to court records.</p>
<p>Curry was never charged with a crime.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Police went to Curry's home Wednesday to arrest him, but no one answered the door.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>On Wednesday, Cook County Sheriff’s deputies went to Curry’s Burr Ridge home to arrest the player — currently on the New York Knicks roster — and while a vehicle was in the driveway, no one answered the door, said sheriff’s spokesman Steve Patterson.</p>
<p>"It’s not a (violent) criminal matter, so it’s not like we’d break down the door and cuff somebody in a situation like this. But we’re going to actively continue to find him," Patterson said. "We thought by now he would have done the right thing and turned himself in, but because he chose not to do to that we’re actively looking to arrest him."</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Hopefully everything is straightened out sooner rather than later.</p>

<blockquote>
<p>A Cook County judge has issued an arrest warrant for former <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nba/teams/CHI">Chicago Bulls</a> star <span>Eddy Curry</span> in connection with an unpaid settlement in a civil lawsuit that has been sealed, according to the Cook County Sheriff's office.</p>
<p>The arrest warrant was issued June 16 and comes after Curry allegedly failed to make full payment on a six-figure settlement involving a woman who sued Curry, according to court documents.</p>

<p>Sadly, my mind immediately jumps to whether or not this will allow the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nba/teams/NYK">Knicks</a> to void his monstrous $11 million contract, a move which would help them dramatically this offseason in terms of cap space and attracting free agent talent. Curry hasn't figured into the on-court plans much since Mike D'Antoni arrived, but his contract will have a huge role in making - but more likely breaking - the Knicks' free agency plans this summer.</p>
