Okay, so I was scrolling through my usual blog feed, and a title caught my eye: “Is NBA Ben 10 in Jail?” Now, I’m not a huge sports guy, but this was too wild to pass up. I mean, NBA Ben 10? What’s that all about? It sounded crazy, so I started digging.
First, I googled “NBA Ben 10.” Turns out, he’s not actually an NBA player. He’s more like an associate or an affiliate of the rapper NBA YoungBoy. I also learned that his real name isn’t even Ben 10. That’s just a nickname, probably because he is like a cartoon character or something.
Then, I checked out some news articles. One article I found said a federal judge in Utah sentenced NBA YoungBoy to just under two years in prison on gun-related charges. Another article mentioned that NBA Ben 10 was arrested on multiple gun and drug charges. It seemed like he’d been in and out of jail a few times.
- One piece said he was caught trying to smuggle cocaine into the United States.
- Another mentioned an IG Live he did from jail, which is just insane to me.
I dove into some forums, like this Reddit place called r/DaDumbWay. It’s all about the Baton Rouge and New Orleans music scene. People there were talking about Ben 10, saying things like “What was he locked up for?” and “Rather 10 be in jail than be outside in BR.” It seems like a rough scene down there.
The Wildest Part
Then, this is where it got really wild. I found out about his most recent arrest in Utah in 2024. This guy was charged with all sorts of things, like possession of controlled substances, possession of a dangerous weapon, and even identity fraud. I mean, seriously, who does this?
And get this: he was already expected to serve 27 months in federal prison for related charges. The judge actually suspended a prison sentence because of this other sentence he was already serving.
So, yeah, it looks like NBA Ben 10 is indeed in jail, or at least he’s been in and out of jail a lot. It’s a crazy story. I started just curious about a weird blog title, and I ended up learning about this whole world of rappers, arrests, and some seriously bad choices. I never thought I would write about something like this, but it was a wild ride.
