Lamar Odom‘s problems keep getting worse. He’s dealing with a serious drug issue and is thus having marital problems. And now he has a DUI arrest. From The L.A. Times:

Veteran NBA player Lamar Odom was released from custody Friday morning after spending about 3½ hours in jail for his arrest on suspicion of driving under the influence.

Odom, 33, was released after posting $15,000 bond and is expected in Van Nuys Municipal Court on Sept. 27.

The 6-foot-10 forward, who most recently played with the Clippers and is now a free agent, was arrested Friday morning after a California Highway Patrol officer observed him driving erratically on the 101 Freeway in the San Fernando Valley, officials said.

A CHP report notes that Odom was driving in a “serpentine manner.” He showed signs of being under the influence of either drugs or alcohol and failed a field sobriety test, according to the CHP.

He was booked into custody at 5:01 a.m. and released at 8:33 a.m.

While wife Khloe Kardashian fired off an angry tweet on August 25 saying, “Really hard to sit here and listen to people talk shit about my family! F-ck you and shame on you! I’m too protective for this shit!” Yeah, well, too bad. You want to be famous, you have to deal with this stuff.

She hasn’t addressed her husband’s arrest. She’s been tweeting photos from her Instagram of her and some friends mugging for the camera. Odom’s got his own camera mugging coming, if you know what I mean. (I mean a mugshot.)

  • Oh, it’s really hard for her to sit there and listen to people talk shit about her family? Then how has she managed to survive the last five or so years since her annoying ass pretentious famiy has been in our faces everywhere we look? Dumb bitch.. people have ALWAYS been talking shit about her family. Call them whores, call them spoiled stuck up bitches, call them “The Kartrashians”, call them money hungry dramatic fakers, call their mother an erratic stage-mom who only cares about fame and money, call them nigger lovers… but DO NOT address her husband very real and very serious drug abuse problem, because you know.. she can’t stand when people lie about her family..
