Lamar Odom gets three years probation

Lamar Odom has been given three years probation after pleading no contest in his DUI case.

The former NBA star, and husband of Khloe Kardashian, was arrested for drink driving in August.

Lamar has received three years of probation and agreed to attend a three-month alcohol-education programme.

Odom’s attorney appeared in Superior Court in Van Nuys, CA, on Monday to enter a no-contest plea on the former NBA star’s behalf.

The 34-year-old, who was not required to be in court, will also pay $1,800 in fines and penalties.

Police stated in August that Odom failed sobriety tests following a traffic stop in Los Angeles, and he was said to have refused chemical tests.

Odom was recently reported to be resigning with basketball team the Los Angeles Clippers.
