ABERDEEN, Md. -- Police say former NBA player Glen "Big Baby" Davis was arrested in a Maryland hotel last month on drug possession and distribution charges.

WMAR-TV in Baltimore reported that Davis was arrested Feb. 7 at a Hampton Inn in Aberdeen.

Aberdeen police Lt. William Reiber told WMAR that police found 126 grams of marijuana and a briefcase containing $92,000 in cash inside Davis' room.

Davis was arrested and later indicted on seven counts of drug possession and distribution.

Davis posted a video on Instagram on Saturday, telling his followers not to believe what they see on the internet and that he will have his day in court.
