Lamar Odom: Why No NBA Team Wants Him
After everything Lamar has been through, we’re so happy that he’s found a way to continue doing what he loves — even if it means joining a team overseas.
But it sounds like the decision wasn’t really up to Lamar. A source tells HollywoodLife.comEXCLUSIVELY that not one team in the NBA felt comfortable signing Lamar after his alleged drug problems andDUI charge.
“No NBA team needed him or trusted him with his past issues,” a source close to the situation EXCLUSIVELY reveals to HollywoodLife.com. “This will only help his future. If he does well he might be given another chance next year.”
We hope so! What do YOU think,HollywoodLifers? Let us know.
