Lamar Odom: A Timeline of Tragedy, Love, Loss ... and Redemption?


With Lamar Odom fighting for his life in a Las Vegas hospital, it"s worth sadly remembering all the former basketball star has been through.




1. Left All Alone

Lamar’s mother died of cancer when he as 12 years old. His father, Joe Odom, was addicted to heroine and scarcely in the picture when Odom was a child.



2. Off-Court Troubles

Odom was a high school phenom on the basketball court. However, academic troubles (along with a citation for soliciting prostitution) plagued Odom prior to him transferring from UNLV to the University of Rhode Island.



3. On to the NBA

Odom was selected fourth overall in the 1999 NBA draft by the Los Angeles Clippers. A couple years later, he was suspended twice in an eight-month span for marijuana use.



4. Goodbye to Grandma

In 2003, Odom’s maternal grandmother Mildred, who helped raise him, passed away.



5. An Unspeakable Loss

Three years later, Odom’s 6-month-old son, Jayden, died from Sudden Infant Death Syndrome while sleeping in his crib.



6. Another Death in the Family
