Lamar Odom breathing on his own, taken to Los Angeles

Now breathing on his own, former NBA star Lamar Odom has been taken from Las Vegas to Los Angeles to continue his recovery, CNN reports.

ESPN, citing sources, said Odom was taken by medical helicopter to a Los Angeles hospital Monday night.

Former college coach Jim Harrick said on CNN’s “New Day” that the 35-year-old athlete has made “a little bit of progress” and has told his estranged wife, Khloe Kardashian, “I love you.”

Odom was after he was found unconscious at the Love Ranch, a brothel in Nevada where he had been holed up for several days.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
