Miami Beach police say a New York Knicks player has been arrested on a bench warrant for not having a valid driver's license.

Public Information Officer Vivian Hernandez told Local 10,  J.R. Smith, 26, was stopped Thursday night on Washington Avenue in South Beach.

A routine search revealed the bench warrant and he was arrested.
Details have not been released on what led police to stop Smith.

Smith was taken to the Miami-Dade County jail, where officials say he bonded out early Friday.

Smith was drafted by the New Orleans Hornets in 2004. He played in China during the NBA lockout last fall and played for the New York Knicks in 2012.
