Doctors at the hospital have upgraded his condition as he is now breathing completely on his own without the aid of an oxygen mask or ventilator. Odom was “conversational” on Saturday and was able to text and speak sentences, according to reports from ESPN and the Los Angeles Times. It really does sound like Odom was working on getting his National Basketball Association career going once again. “Sitting and thinking about LO as the person I know him as and thinking about what he has gone thru in his life”, Wade tweeted.

Lamar Odom is “way, way better” and is more conversational as he remains in critical condition in a Las Vegas hospital, a source told ESPN on Saturday. The E! reality show was set to resume filming at the end of October, but now, it may be delayed. The Lakers were playing the Sacramento Kings in an exhibition game in Las Vegas. I’ll be honest, when I heard that 35-year-old Lamar had suffered a series of strokes, I was expecting the worst.
Lamar’s estranged wife Khloe, 31, has been with him since he was admitted to hospital and has barely left his side.
Wehrly said the sheriff’s office received a 911 call from two people at the brothel.
“They confirmed his usage on Saturday but was unsure if it had continued to the weekend”.
Neither the Kardashians nor Odom’s representatives have given any official updates on the athlete’s condition since he collapsed on Tuesday at a brothel in Nevada, where authorities said he had used cocaine and so-called herbal Viagra. He was unconscious but breathing.
A spokeswoman for Odom’s aunt also said he was improving. That blood was drawn early Wednesday morning.
Although Khloe and Lamar signed divorce papers this year, they have not been finalised by a judge, so Khloe still has to make medical decisions on behalf of Lamar.
Now a free agent, Odom last played for the Los Angeles Clippers during the 2012-2013 season and is no longer attached to any National Basketball Association team.

The “Keeping up With the Kardashians” star reportedly remained at her husband’s bedside Thursday, though the network denied reports that the show was still filming from inside the hospital.
