Lamar Odom was back in the spotlight in Las Vegas just a week after his recent drunk driving arrest sparked new concerns for the former NBA star.
Khloe Kardashian’s ex-husband was seen Saturday night at C3 Lounge near the famous Strip, where he appeared calm and social while promoting his new drinks brand.
The 46-year-old appeared relaxed as he greeted guests and posed for photos.
The outing came just days after Odom’s Jan. 17 arrest following a late-night traffic stop.
However, police suspected him of driving under the influence after he was caught driving at more than 100 mph.
Authorities later said his vehicle smelled strongly of marijuana and his eyes were bloodshot.
Odom denied being drunk or high at the time of his arrest.
Speaking to TMZ, he said he doesn’t do alcohol or drugs.
Additionally, reports later claimed that he admitted to smoking marijuana earlier in the day and had difficulty during sobriety tests.
The former Los Angeles Lakers star was charged with drunk driving, speeding and improper lane changing.
After the arrest, Odom said: “[I] remains committed to my continued growth. I’ve worked hard to rebuild my life, and taking responsibility is an essential part of that process.
Odom has faced addiction issues in the past and nearly died of an overdose in 2015.
In recent years, he has also spoken out about sobriety and helping others in recovery.
