Lamar Odom has reportedly checked out of rehab after completing a 30-day program following his DUI arrest earlier this year.
Odom’s rehab stint was not court-mandated, though he chose to get help for a marijuana addiction after he was busted while allegedly driving high in Las Vegas in mid-January.
The former NBA star, 46, posted bail shortly after and checked into iRely Recovery in Los Angeles, which he chose based on a prior conversation with the center’s leader, Vinsent Franke, according to TMZ.
“After a recent incident, he took a step back to reflect and address triggers he’s been dealing with,” Odom’s manager, Gina Rodriguez, told People magazine when Odom chose to get help. “Lamar is grateful for the support and is committed to moving forward in a healthy, positive way.”
Following his January arrest, Odom said he wasn’t under the influence of alcohol or narcotics — which he’s known to have abused in the past. However, cops said his vehicle smelled of marijuana and that Odom admitted to smoking weed before getting behind the wheel.
Police said Odom was driving more than 40 mph over the speed limit and recklessly changing lanes when he was pulled over. The case against him is ongoing.
Odom said he went to get help because he was worried his dependence on marijuana could lead to a relapse on heavier drugs. In 2015, Odom nearly died from an overdose at a Nevada brothel and spent multiple days in a coma.
