Former NBA star Lamar Odom was hospitalised after being found unconscious on Tuesday (13th October) at a Nevada brothel.
Script:
Police were called to the Love Ranch brothel in Crystal, Nevada on Tuesday after former Los Angeles Laker Lamar Odom reportedly lost consciousness.
The 35-year-old was stabilised and taken to Desert View Hospital.
Officials tried to have him airlifted to Las Vegas, but the 6-foot-10-inch Odom was too tall for the helicopter that was available and he was driven by ambulance.
There was no immediate word on his condition
The brothel's owner, Dennis Hof, said Odom had been taking herbal Viagra and had drunk part of a bottle of cognac.
Hof said Odom had been staying at his home that is attached to the brothel since the 10th October.
Odom won two NBA championships with the Lakers in 2009 and 2010.
He last played in the NBA in 2013, and saw recent reality TV fame through his four-year marriage to Khloe Kardashian.
Kardashian filed for divorce in 2013.
