Heat suspend Wright for 2 games after DUI arrest

MIAMI -- Dorell Wright has been suspended for two games by the Miami Heat, one day after he was cited for driving under the influence.

Heat president Pat Riley says Wright's conduct was "detrimental to the team." Wright will not be with the Heat for home games Friday against Chicago and Sunday against Philadelphia.

Wright was charged Thursday morning with DUI and driving with a suspended license after traffic stop in Miami Beach.

The 6-foot-8 backup forward is averaging 6.3 points this season.
