Odom looked to be healthy and in great spirits.
That's a far cry from when he had a near-fatal drug overdose at a brothel in rural Nevada back in October of 2015.
He details the harrowing and humbling experience in his new tell-all book -- Darkness To Light.
The New York native credits Khloe with helping him through the overdose that left him in a coma after suffering 12 strokes and six heart attacks.

He also admits to being a sex addict and sleeping with more than 2,000 women, which includes affairs and flings during his seven-year marriage to Khloe.
'I was shocked and embarrassed, he told People. 'I wanted to take it back, but you can't. [I] wanted to hide it. But that sick sin was hard for me to hide … I had a problem.'
The former couple were married from 2009 to 2016.
Odom last played in the NBA during the 2012-13 season with the Los Angeles Clippers. He also starred with the Lakers, Miami Heat and Dallas Mavericks during his career.
