Kareem Lamar Rush (born October 30, 1980 in Kansas City, Missouri) is a professional basketball player playing at shooting guard for the NBA's Charlotte Bobcats. He became widely acclaimed while still in high school at The Pembroke Hill School in Kansas City, where he graduated in 1999.

Rush entered the 2002 NBA Draft after his junior season at Missouri and was selected by the Toronto Raptors with the 20th pick overall. The Raptors immediately traded his rights to the Los Angeles Lakers, where he played little over two full seasons. However, he demonstrated his scoring and three-point shooting abilities near the end of the season, and as a result became a more frequently used reserve player. He was traded to the Bobcats only 14 games into the Lakers' 2004-05 season in exchange for two second-round draft picks. In Charlotte, his playing time was somewhat reduced because of the plethora of shooting guards on the roster. In the 2005 off-season, he was resigned by the Bobcats to a minimum-salary deal. Playing behind such a player as Kobe Bryant, Rush has turned into a legitimate scorer, ranking 3rd on the team in scoring.
