Former NBA player
Lamar Odom is set to sign a deal with
Spanish team
Laboral Kutxa Vitoria.
Previously, Odom was out of the NBA because of an alleged drug problem and DUI charge, to which he pleaded no contest and struck a deal.
Before he spiraled out of control, Odom had forgettable stops with the
Dallas Mavericks and
LA Clippers as he struggled to stay in shape and focus on basketball.
Those problems started when the
LA Lakers included Odom in a trade for
Chris Paul, a deal that then-NBA commissioner
David Stern did not clear, which meant Odom went back to the Lakers. Odom then demanded a trade and landed with the Mavericks and never regained basketball form after that.
