Former NBA star Lamar Odom arrested for DUI in Las Vegas

Former NBA player Lamar Odom has been arrested in Las Vegas for driving under the influence, TMZ has learned. Odom was pulled over early Saturday morning and subsequently booked for DUI. Authorities say the incident remains under investigation. He was also cited for two traffic violations, including driving more than 41 miles per hour over the speed limit and improper lane change/failure to maintain lane. As of the time of publication, Odom still appeared to be in custody. Odom, who has publicly documented past struggles with drug and alcohol addiction, was previously arrested for DUI in 2013. In 2015, he nearly died of an overdose, prompting his then-wife Khlo Kardashian to rush to his side during his recovery. Their relationship ended after Odom relapsed in 2016. Over his 14-year NBA career, Odom played for four teams. In recent years, he has become an advocate for sobriety and has offered support to others battling addiction, including Bam Margera,  through rehabilitation centers he operates.The post Former NBA star Lamar Odom arrested for DUI in Las Vegas appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
