Anthony was pulled over in his Mercedes on a freeway near downtown Denver after he was spotted weaving and failing to dim his high-beam headlights, Denver Police Det. Sharon Hahn said. Anthony was alone in the car when he was stopped around 4 a.m., she said.
In a statement issued through his attorney, Anthony, 23, said he regrets the incident.
"Carmelo apologizes to his fans, the Denver community, his teammates and the Nuggets organization for the distraction this is causing them," the statement said.
Anthony was taken into custody, booked and later released after consenting to a blood test. He has a court date scheduled for May 14.
On Sunday night, he scored 11 points as the Nuggets beat the Houston Rockets 111-94 to keep their playoff hopes alive.
Anthony is one of the NBA's most versatile most players, averaging 25.8, 7.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game this season.
