Paul Pierce Gets Ride Home From Halloween Party Days After DUI Charge

Paul Pierce has apparently gotten a driver in the wake of his recent DUI arrest … as the NBA legend was seen getting a lift home from a party on Wednesday night.

Just eight days after he was charged with misdemeanor driving under the influence of alcohol … Pierce was seen out in Beverly Hills taking the safe way home from a Halloween-themed event.

Paps caught the former Celtics star — who was rockin’ a curly wig, big chains and a zebra-print, purple jacket — hopping into the backseat of an SUV … after he seemed to have a good night with friends.

Pierce, as you know, was arrested on suspicion of DUI back on Oct. 7 … after authorities alleged they found him asleep behind the wheel of his Range Rover while it was on a Los Angeles highway.

Pierce claimed he had merely dozed off while in standstill traffic … but LA prosecutors clearly didn’t buy the excuse — as in addition to the DUI charge, he was also hit with one misdemeanor count of driving with .08% blood alcohol content.
