Lamar Odom pleaded not guilty on Tuesday to the criminal charges he was hit with following his January run-in with cops in Nevada.
Odom’s attorney, Kevin Coburn, submitted the plea on the former NBA player’s behalf inside a Las Vegas court room.
At the proceedings, Coburn also requested a bench trial for his client, which was set for July 7.
Odom is facing three misdemeanors in the case — one count of DUI, one count of speeding 41 MPH over posted speed limit and one count of failure to properly maintain travel lane — after authorities alleged he drove over 100 MPH while under the influence on a Las Vegas highway on Jan. 17.
An incident report stated Odom was pulled over for going well over the posted speed limit of 65 MPH and he smelled of marijuana during the ensuing traffic stop.
The former Laker was then arrested after he allegedly failed field sobriety tests.

Coburn, according the Las Vegas Review-Journal, declined to comment on the allegations against Odom on Tuesday, though the attorney did confirm his client had completed rehab in the wake of the arrest.
While Odom awaits his bench trial, his fans will have the opportunity to learn about more of the inner-most details of his life via a new Netflix documentary that will make its debut on the streaming platform in two weeks.
“Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom” is slated to air on March 31, and promises to tell the stories of all of Odom’s ups and downs — both on and off the NBA hardwood.
