KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) Former UCLA forward JaRon Rush pleaded guilty to drunken driving charges and was sentenced to probation Monday.

Rush is the older brother of Kareem Rush, a standout at Missouri who was recently drafted by the Toronto Raptors and traded to the Los Angeles Lakers.

JaRon Rush pleaded guilty in Jackson County Circuit Court to driving while intoxicated and careless and imprudent driving. He was stopped May 21 for weaving between lanes on a south Kansas City residential street. Police said a test showed Rush's blood alcohol level was .31 percent, nearly four times Missouri's legal limit of .08.

Under the plea agreement, Rush received a suspended imposition of sentence and must serve two years probation. The terms of the probation include substance abuse and alcohol treatment programs.

Rush helped Pembroke Hill win consecutive Class 2A state high school basketball championships in 1997 and 1998. The titles were later stripped because AAU coach Myron Piggie made illegal gifts to the Rush brothers and other players. Rush left after his sophomore season at UCLA, but was not selected in the NBA Draft.

Rush was invited to the Seattle SuperSonics' training camp last year and was the team's final cut. He played in only 14 games before being dropped by the Roanoke Dazzle of the NBA's Developmental League.

In February, Rush was cut from the practice squad of the ABA's Kansas City Knights for missing practice. He had been with the team for just three weeks.
