1999, Odom was selected by the Clippers with the fourth overall pick in the first round. After that, he started his NBA career and later played for Miami Heat. In the 2004-05 season, O 'Neill failed to renew his contract with the Lakers. Riley, then general manager of the Heat, seized the opportunity to extradite sharks with Odom, Butler and Grant as chips. Odom took this opportunity to recapture Los Angeles and become Kobe's right-hand man. At the same time, he also ushered in the peak of his personal career.
Odom played for the Lakers for seven years. He played the role of a bench gangster and helped the team win two NBA championships. On 20 10- 1 1 season, the all-around Odom won the best sixth man award, but in the Western Conference semifinals that year, the Lakers were swept by the lone ranger and entered the reconstruction period. 20 1 1 1 In February, the Lakers traded Pau Gasol and Odom for chris paul of the New Orleans Hornets, but this heavy deal was stopped by League President Stern on the grounds of so-called basketball. Although the deal failed to be reached, Odom was disheartened by the Lakers after hearing the news. He applied to leave the team and was soon sent to Dallas Mavericks, so his Zijin career came to an end. ?
When Odom played for the Lakers, it can be said that the scenery was infinite. He not only signed a big contract, but also succeeded in winning the heart of the beautiful celebrity khloe kardashian. They soon fell in love and got married. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Khloe kardashian is a difficult woman to control. Not long after, the couple fell into an emotional crisis and soon divorced. After Kohler's divorce, he quickly threw himself into the arms of others, and Odom, who was infatuated, was deeply hit. Since then, scandals such as drug abuse, drunk driving and fighting have always surrounded him. This man is completely decadent. ?
Odom, who is in a serious decline, can't provide much immediate fighting power on the court, so the lone ranger can only continue to trade him. In this way, Odom went to the Clippers and Knicks again. After being laid off in 20 14, the NBA career came to an end. During his depression, Odom squandered a lot of wealth, and after retiring from the NBA, his life was once in an embarrassing situation. Not content with playing without the ball, he came to play in the Spanish league and even the Philippine league. Even so, he failed to gain a foothold. In 20 17, Iverson called a group of retired NAB players to form the BIG3 league, which gave Odom a chance. ?
On 20 19, Odom joined the rival of BIG3 league. Odom's appearance fee is about $5,000, and he can earn more than 65,438+million a season. Of course, the money can't be compared with Odom's previous annual salary of tens of millions, but it is enough for him to live a stable life, provided that he doesn't continue to squander it. Odom's physical condition has declined seriously. After playing for less than a year, it was laid off by the BIG3 team. In short, Odom still needs to face many tests in his next life.
