I think Lamar Odom making a statement on this whole alleged drug situation is the best thing he can do. That way people will just stop talking and maybe he can focus on getting the help that he needs. And as far as how this whole story leaked in the first place?! Apparently Lamar knows who did it.
Reports after the jump…
On Statement Via RadarOnline:
NBA star Lamar Odom is expected to imminently release a statement and confirm he has an addiction to prescription drug medication — Oxycontin and Ambien.
Multiple sources familiar with the situation told Radar that Lamar, 33, has had a drug problem for the past two years and even went to rehab last August under pressure from the Kardashian clan.
Lamar is expected to release a statement admitting his addiction to the prescription meds.

On leaked drug stories Via Radaronline:
As sensational reports about Lamar Odom‘s drug addiction swirl, the NBA star believes the Kardashian family leaked negative stories about his alleged use of crack cocaine, but he doesn’t believe his wife Khloe Kardashian has had any role in the negative stories being made public.
Lamar “absolutely believes Khloe’s family has been leaking stories to the tabloid press about his drug use, and his trip to rehab last year. Khloe has been very private about Lamar’s drug addiction, as she had done for the past year,” a family insider exclusively told Radar.
“The last thing Lamar needs is for his battle to get sober made public. Khloe is also extremely angry that details about Lamar’s past trip to rehab and recent failed intervention were published on various gossip websites.”
Now that Lamar’s alleged drug use is out in the open, “he will be obviously be subjected to increased drug testing by the NBA which has a very tough policy on using illegal substances and steroids,” the insider continued.
“Lamar is a free agent, and of course, that could hurt his chances of being signed by an NBA team. Basketball is Lamar’s life, and it’s been hard for him to go from being a starter, to the sixth man sitting on the bench.”
