Barkley was pulled over in Scottsdale's Old Town area on New Year's Eve and submitted to a blood test administered by the Gilbert Police Department.
"I am disappointed that I put myself in that situation," Barkley said Wednesday in a statement to The Associated Press. "The Scottsdale police were fantastic. Now it is a legal matter and I will not comment further until it is resolved."
The 45-year-old Barkley, now an NBA television commentator, failed standard field sobriety tests after the officer smelled alcohol on him, and he was arrested.
