Former NBA star Lamar Odom is expected to enter a plea deal in a DUI case in Las Vegas. The deal will result in the DUI charge being lowered to a reckless driving charge. The plea deal comes in lieu of a bench trial that was scheduled Tuesday. According to an arrest report, the former Los Angeles Lakers player was arrested in mid-January after a state trooper observed him speeding. Odom won championships in 2009 and 2010 with the Los Angeles Lakers. He also played for the Los Angeles Clippers, Miami Heat and Dallas Mavericks during a 14-year NBA career.
