Former NBA champion Lamar Odom is reportedly taking positive leaps forward in his recovery from a serious hospitalization last year.
According to reports, Odom could be living independently in the coming months due to his recovery’s progression.
As we reported, Lamar went hiking with Kim and Khloe over the weekend. The doctors never thought they would see the day. But even more surprising … Lamar’s cognitive functions have significantly returned … he’s able to process thoughts, speak them and carry on conversations. Lamar had significant problems recognizing people — even family members — for several months after he was rushed to the hospital. But now his recall is back. (TMZ)
Reality television star Kim Kardashian West updated fans on her former brother-in-law a few days ago.

According to reports, Kim’s sister Khloé Kardashian helped get Odom into a new home last month.
We’ve learned Khloe has leased a home for Lamar just blocks from her home in The Oaks, an exclusive gated community. Our Kardashian sources say Khloe’s name is on the lease, which makes sense. Lamar is still in no position to sign contracts. Although Lamar is not living with Khloe, they are spending time together. He was spotted at her home Monday and looked good. (TMZ)
Buzz about Odom checking out of his hospital stay developed back in January.
The former NBA player will move from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles – where he was airlifted from a Las Vegas hospital after being found unconscious in a Nevada brothel – to a live-in rehabilitation center, a source tells PEOPLE. “The plan is for him to move in the next few days,” the insider adds. “At the center, Lamar will continue to receive amazing therapy. He still has many challenges but is making progress. He is a fighter!” (People)
