Glad to see he's been doing much better.

Glad he's optimistic he'll play basketball again

But all and all it's just good and great to see Lamar up and about and positive!

Also reunited with his kids

It would be cool if he was involved in mentoring players like Nance and Randle. He can be here next year in a Metta type role without playing.

Don't want to throw cold water on it,but I doubt LO will ever suit up in the NBA again. He has things like age and his past working against him. I think he would be a good mentor for a team to looking to give rookies guidance. If you look at his teammates, most of them are working their way in the coaching ranks and that is where he should focus his career on if he wants to stay in basketball.

I just took a look at Lamar Odom's wiki and it says that he was the most searched person on Google in 2015.

I heard that Baron Davis offered Lamar a spot on his Drew League team. Hopefully LO continues to get more healthy and get rid of his maladaptive habits.

Probably due to his association with the Kardashians.

Great to see him this healthy, it really seemed he might die or be permanently disabled after his incident at the brothel.

It's really great.

I googled Dave Chapelle and saw a bunch of photos of him looking bigger but not fatter.
Maybe he's been bulking, not getting fat?

True.

I understand that Lamar needs to have something to do and look forward to. All recovering addicts do. But playing basketball at his age may not be the way forward.

A part of me wonders if he wasn't as bad as we were lead to believe. Or maybe because as an athlete his body is different in that regard.

Yeah, looks like Lamar is back out in the clubs getting smashed again.

Although I do believe that the Kardashian girl rescinded her divorce filing from Lamar right after his stroke for selfish reasons. She probably thought he would die and she'd stand to receive financial gains off of his death. Also, it was a stunt move to "improve" her public image as a devoted, doting wife and since it was a big story in the press, whoring herself for publicity was just par for the course for that entire family.

It seemed sincere at the time... But given this divorce filing, it appears that you're probably correct, unfortunately.

Lamar would be like, "Look young fellas, we're all gonna go to the strip club tonight. Now what I want you y'all to do is observe everything I do and try NOT to do any of it yourself. Larry, you're driving. We're taking your Mercedes. Julius, gimme your credit card."

She brought his family to him and stayed by his side nearly the entire time. Khloe Kardashian will always be alright in my book. Married to Lamar or not.
