Lamar Odom's trainer must not pay attention to the reports.
Amid reports and documented proof that the two-time NBA champion has had issues with alcohol -- as well as rumors that he's back on drugs -- his trainer, Oneil Pryce, claims that he is sober.
Khloe Kardashian recently rekindled her divorce proceedings to the former NBA star and kicked him out of the home she rented for him after rumors of her finding drug parapharnalia in the home surfaced. Despite these reports, Pryce claims his client is doing just fine.
"From what I know he's not drinking alcohol, because right now he is focused and that is the state I have him in right now," Pryce told Us Weekly. "He has been drinking his water, staying low key and pretty much staying out of sight of everybody else, all of the negative stuff."
If that's the case, it's hard to understand why Odom was recently kicked off of a flight for being too drunk and spotted out drinking publicly a.k.a. in plain sight a lot recently. It's possible his sober state has just begun, but it's hard to give Odom the benefit of the doubt.
Kardashian was by his side after he suffered a near-fatal overdose at a Nevada brothel last October, and though he made a miraculous recovery, Odom once again has found himself struggling to overcome his demons.
Pryce claims that the former Lakers star is trying to overcome his addiction and get his life together, but everything that surfaces surrounding his client says the opposite.
"He really wants to get his life back together," Prycs said. "He's really trying hard and that is what we are working on right now."
With Odom struggling again, his family is very worried for him -- which includes his kids, Lamar Jr. and Destiny. The former basketball star's family members have tried to help him, but a planned intervention reportedly fell through.
Kardashian, 32, filed for divorce from Odom, 36, on May 26. The reality star also has a strong desire to have kids -- which doesn't appear to be on Odom's radar right now.
After filing for divorce, Kardashian decided to kick Odom out of his home due to his issues with drugs and alcohol. He was said to be staying with friends while he hunts down a new permanent dwelling.
Apparently, his trainer missed all of this.
