Retired professional basketball player Lamar Odom, who collapsed at his VIP booth at a nightclub in Los Angeles, is reportedly doing well.

The incident happened on Sunday morning, according to a video by TMZ Sports.

In a statement given to E! News, a spokeperson to the former Keeping Up With the Kardashians reality star said: “Lamar is doing well.”

Odom, who was once married to Khloe Kardashian, was at the nightclub at Sunset Boulevard when several staffers and patrons noticed the ex-NBA star collapse at around 2am. Security rushed in to help.

The person who shot the video told TMZ that he saw Odom drinking for several hours before the incident.

Odom has a serious history with substance abuse — he almost died from a drug overdose at a brothel in 2015. He has since gone to rehab.
