Recent news about Lamar Odom's heath is breaking out two months after he was found unconscious in a Las Vegas legal brothel in October. The news is claiming that the former NBA star "struggles" to "walk on his own" and has trouble "remembering his own name."

Citing an unnamed news source that is close to the 36-year-old former Lakers star, an Entertainment Tonight report revealed that Lamar Odom's current health condition is "not doing great."

"His speech is still slurred and he can barely walk on his own yet," the source told the entertainment news outlet. "He forgets a lot of people's names-sometimes even his own name. He definitely has some memory loss."

An informant for E! Online also said that Lamar Odom is indeed having a hard time with his health recovery. Reportedly, Odom "has not spoken in the halls during his therapy" and that "it appears he can't walk on his own."

The source added that, "He has a walker that he does short walks with the aid of a therapist."

The source also revealed news that Lamar Odom is "always struggling."

"I saw the other day he got tired after a short session in the walker and had to be transferred back to his wheel chair," the insider told E!

Lamar Odom was found unconscious in a Nevada brothel in October after he allegedly overdosed on cocaine and other drugs. He has since been undergoing intense health therapy after coming out of a coma.

However, Lamar Odom is not alone in this ordeal as his estranged wife Khloe Kardashian, who is still legally married to him, has always been there to make crucial medical decisions for the former NBA player since the start of his health scare.

Just last month, the "Keeping Up with the Kardashian" star opened up about Odom's health crisis, according to E!, where she explained her experience of first learning about the crisis by phone.

"It's a horrible call to get," she was quoted as saying by E! "Getting to the hospital and knowing he's in coma and having to run these tests or make medical decisions. It's terrifying," she admitted.
