Forbes was arrested Wednesday in San Antonio on a misdemeanor family violence charge, Dillon Collier of KSAT 12 San Antonio reports.
Forbes was arrested at 5 a.m. local time on suspicion of assault with bodily injury after a verbal argument with a female companion turned physical, according to police records. The 29-year-old guard recently became a free agent after being waived by the Timberwolves in the aftermath of last week's trade deadline.
The Timberwolves plan to waive Forbes on Thursday, Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic reports.
Forbes will end up losing his roster spot with the Timberwolves needing to clear room for their two pickups from Wednesday's three-team deal with the Jazz and Lakers, Mike Conley and Nickeil Alexander-Walker. Over 25 appearances for Minnesota this season, Forbes averaged 3.6 points in 10.7 minutes on 36.1 percent shooting from the field.

Timberwolves' Bryn Forbes: Quiet in loss
Rotowire
Forbes went scoreless (0-1 FG) to go along with one rebound across eight minutes in Friday's 121-109 loss to the Celtics.
Forbes has barely been in the rotation over the Timberwolves' previous eight games. He is averaging 3.1 points, 0.7 rebounds, 0.4 assists and 0.4 triples across 11 minutes per game during that span.

Timberwolves' Bryn Forbes: Barely visible in Friday's win
Rotowire
Forbes registered two points (1-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one assist over 16 minutes during Friday's 112-110 win over the Thunder.
Forbes saw a handful of extra minutes in the win, brought about by injuries to a number of key players. Despite the increased responsibility, he managed just two points, highlighting his lack of upside when it comes to fantasy. Besides being a situational three-point streamer, Forbes can safely be left on the waiver wire in just about every format.
