Lamar Odom found unconscious, taken to Nevada hospital

LOS ANGELES: Reality TV star Lamar Odom has been hospitalised after he became unconscious in Nevada.

The former Los Angeles Lakers basketball star, 35, who was married to Khloe Kardashian, checked into Dennis Hoff's Love Ranch South last week in the town of Pahrump.

Odom was found unconscious in his room by a member of the staff yesterday morning after days of partying, reported E!Online.

However, it is yet not known if alcohol or drugs were in his room at the time when he was found unconscious.

An ambulance took him to the local hospital where doctors intubated him. Shortly thereafter, the former basket ball star was airlifted to a Las Vegas hospital to be treated.

He has not yet regained consciousness and the prognosis does not look good for Odom.

Back in 2013, less than a week after being arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence, Odom checked into a treatment facility near Los Angeles. Less than 24 hours day later, he checked out of the facility.
