Former Nets star Jayson Williams has admitted he was driving drunk when he crashed his SUV into a tree in New York City earlier this year.

Williams pleaded guilty Friday to a misdemeanor count of driving while intoxicated in the Jan. 5 incident.

He was immediately sentenced to a year in prison.

The wreck occurred the week before he pleaded guilty to aggravated assault for accidentally shooting and killing a limo driver.

Williams, 42, will serve his one-year term after serving a five-year prison term in New Jersey on a separate assault conviction.
