TMZ Sports has obtained Ben Gordon's mug shot after he allegedly attacked two McDonald's security guards in Chicago ... with the ex-NBA star appearing alert and wide-eyed.

As we previously reported, Gordon was being escorted out of a local Mickey D's on Nov. 4 when he allegedly hit a 29-year-old male guard in the face and threw him to the ground. He is also accused of shoving a second 21-year-old male guard during the altercation.

quote:

It's unclear what led to the altercation, but the former NBA lottery pick appeared to have a blank stare as he posed for his mug shot shortly after being taken into custody.

quote:

39-year-old Gordon was charged with two counts of misdemeanor battery ... and his first court date is slated for next month.
quote:

The Nov. 4 arrest adds to Gordon's growing list of off-court issues since retiring in 2017 -- he was most recently accused of punching his 10-year-old son in an airport for dropping a book ... and right after he made bail in that case, he was taken into custody in connection to a 2020 assault in Manhattan.

Dude is bipolar among other mental health problems

Always sad to see the downward spiral of people you grew up watching

Should be executed on the spot if this actually happened.

This would be Patrick Beverley if he weren't still in the league.

This definitely smells like bi-polar disorder. It's truly awful, because this guy has a family he can't even deal with. He was able to do a lot because of his talent and the money that came to him, but he's an absolute mess. It's very sad.

“Alert” is not the first word to come to mind.

In between wharfing down natchitoches pies and selling insider information to Woj, Joe Dumars gave that clown $55MM.

We need to address mental health issues, and we need to promote that it is fine for men to say when they are having bad days. Lost too many friends to suicide or drugs due to a perception that saying you need help is you being a pussy, and our lack of investment in those services is an indictment on our priorities.
