Former Los Angeles Lakers forward Lamar Odom is reportedly fighting for his life after being found unconscious at Dennis Hof’s Love Ranch South in Pahrump, Nevada.

According to TMZ, Odom was reportedly partying at the Love Ranch for days before being found unconscious:

Lamar Odom is fighting for his life after falling into unconsciousness at Dennis Hof’s Love Ranch South in Pahrump, Nevada … TMZ Sports has learned.

Sources at the Love Ranch tell us … 35-year-old Odom arrived at the Ranch on Saturday and was partying with the girls for days. A source at the Ranch said Lamar was taking an herbal substitute for Viagra.

Odom was found with a “mucus-type liquid” coming out of his nose and mouth prompting the 911 call from the Love Ranch. The former Laker was taken to a local hospital before being airlifted to another hospital in Las Vegas, via TMZ:

An ambulance took Lamar to Pahrump hospital, where doctors intubated him … an indication he could not breathe on his own.

We’re told Lamar is being airlifted from the hospital to Las Vegas for more treatment.

An unfortunate series of events for Odom, who has been struggling with life away from basketball and his ex-wife Khloe Kardashian over the past few years.

During his time with the Lakers, Odom won two NBA titles as well as the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year award. The 35-year-old was adored by the fans and thought very highly of by the media in his seven years with the Lakers.
