Lamar Odom is avoiding the Big Apple and the bad aspects of his past.
The retired Laker celebrated his 37th birthday with family and friends at home in Los Angeles on Sunday, according to People.
“He’s away from the negative influences in New York,” a source told the magazine. “Everyone who knows and loves him just wants him to get back to his old self, but that will still take some time. He’s been through a lot and he’s still working on himself.”
The TV personality was seen around New York over the summer after his near-fatal drug overdose at a Las Vegas brothel in October 2015.
He and Khloe Kardashian finalized their divorce at the end of October.
