Morrow, of North Carolina, said on Instagram he was stopped on I-85 while driving toward Atlanta from Charlotte.

Perry said troopers stopped Morrow about 5:41 p.m. because they suspected an illegal window tint. When Morrow declined to allow the troopers to search his 2015 Dodge Challenger, a police dog walked along the outside of the car.

“A subsequent search of the vehicle revealed no contraband or illegal items,” Perry said.

Morrow was given a warning about the 4 percent tint and released.

The former Atlanta Hawks player most recently played for the Chicago Bulls. He made the Golden State Warriors as an undrafted rookie in 2008 and played portions of last season for the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Bulls. Morrow has yet to sign with a team to play next season.

At Tech, Morrow made a 3-pointer in 41 straight games, a school and ACC record. He finished his career in 19th place on the school’s all-time scoring list with 1,400 points.
