    MIAMI BEACH, Fla. - Miami Heat rookie Robert Hite was charged with driving under the influence early Sunday, police said, and was not with the team for its game that afternoon against the Dallas Mavericks.

    Hite allegedly was speeding in a white BMW early Sunday when Miami Beach Police stopped him. According to the police report, which was first obtained by Miami television station WSVN, an officer detected a "strong odor of an alcoholic beverage on his breath" and said Hite's eyes were bloodshot and his speech slurred.

    Hite was processed and released on $1,000 bond at 2:11 p.m. Sunday, Miami-Dade Corrections spokeswoman Janelle Hall said. Hite was not at the arena for the Heat's game, which began at 1 p.m.
    "I don't know anything about it. I don't know where he is," Heat interim coach Ron Rothstein said after Sunday's game, which Miami lost 99-93. "That's all I can tell you. I don't know. I'm going to try to find out. I'm concerned but as of right now I don't know what the deal is."

    stupid on his part. hopefully he can come back strong from this and he wont receive too harsh of a punishment from the organization (although he does deserve somewhat of one).
