that depends on where the movement is as you see.

Hi, movement is when i hold wheel it wobbles from somewhere behind wheel ,it seems to be at the end of driveshaft

can it be any rubber bushings?

if on the front wheel i would readily agree with you that it is the wheel bearing.

the rear wheel bearing will create a humming sound if bad.
