Substance abuse has been a rising issue in our society. Celebrities and athletes often tend to be prone to be the victims of the issue. That is what happened to this former Los Angeles Lakers star and two-time NBA champion, who has now offered to help another celebrity in a similar situation.

In 2015, former Lakers star Lamar Odom was found overdosed at a Nevada brothel and almost lost his life. He was rushed to a nearby hospital in critical condition and almost miraculously recovered from his severe ailments. However, since then, Odom has managed to turn his life around and is now willing to help another person in need.

Lamar Odom was the fourth overall pick in the 1999 NBA draft by the Los Angeles Clippers. He played 14 seasons in the league and won two NBA championships playing alongside the late great Kobe Bryant. However, after retiring from the league, Odom fell into substance abuse problems and almost ended up losing his life and family. Since then, the former 6?10 forward has managed to turn his life around by investing in rehabilitation centers for others in need.

Once a man who was on a dark path himself, Odom made it a mission to help victims in similar predicaments. The most recent person he has offered to help, that too free of cost, is skateboarder and TV personality, Bam Margera, who’s known for his role in Jacka**.

Margera recently turned himself in to the Police in Pennsylvania after an alleged physical confrontation with his brother, as per reports. Bam has been in rehabilitation centers in several states, as he suffers from substance abuse and mental health problems as well.
