Carmelo Anthony plead guilty to driving while ability-impaired, a charge which was reduced from the original charge of Driving While Under the Influence. The Denver Nuggest star was sentenced to a year probation, and 24 hours of community service, plus $1,000 in fines and court fees according to court documents.  “I’m happy that it’s over so I get a chance to take care of my business,” said Anthony, according to People.com.      

The NBA player was suspended for two Nuggets games because of the arrest. Also on Tuesday, Denver police announced that he’ll participate in their “Alive at 25″ program, aimed at encouraging good driving habits among teens behind the wheel.
