A judge acquitted Minnesota Timberwolves center Michael Olowokandi on Monday of misdemeanor charges of criminal trespass and disorderly conduct at a downtown nightclub last fall.

Olowokandi was arrested about 3 a.m. on Nov. 25 after he refused to leave Tiki Bob's and had to be subdued by police with a stun gun. He was held overnight in jail and released in the morning, and the Timberwolves suspended him for their game against the Indiana Pacers that night and their next game against Memphis for "conduct detrimental to the team."

Olowokandi said he was trying to retrieve a sweat shirt from the club.

He was acquitted by Judge William Nelson in a bench trial in Marion Superior Court.
