RENO, Nev. — Brandon Fields, the top returning scorer on Nevada's basketball team, has been cleared of any criminal wrongdoing in an alleged shoplifting incident at a Sparks sporting goods store.

Fields' lawyer says the case involving a charge of petty larceny was dismissed Tuesday afternoon. Scott Freeman told the Reno Gazette-Journal that "it vindicates him from any allegation that he was involved in any illegal activity.

Fields averaged 12.4 points per game last season.

The 6-foot-4 junior guard from Arlington, Texas was one of three Wolf Pack players that coach Mark Fox suspended indefinitely following their citations for petty larceny at a Scheels store on Oct. 15.

Freshman guard London Giles pleaded guilty last week and was fined $350 plus court costs of $107. Freshman forward Ahyaro Phillips pleaded not guilty and is awaiting a trial date.

No word on when Fields might be reinstated.
