Intro

Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom pulls back the curtain on one of professional basketball's most tragic and compelling stories. At his peak, Lamar Odom was a celebrated Los Angeles Laker living what appeared to be a glamorous, rock star lifestyle — fame, wealth, and a high-profile marriage to Khloé Kardashian. But beneath the surface, a secret battle with cocaine addiction was quietly consuming him. The documentary traces his descent through rehab escapes, prolonged disappearances, and the efforts of those around him to cover up the truth and protect his image, until the facade became impossible to maintain. In 2015, Odom was found unconscious at a Nevada brothel, having suffered twelve strokes and six heart attacks — an event that should have killed him. Told through his own voice and those closest to him, the film is a brutally honest examination of addiction, celebrity, denial, and the extraordinary will to survive.
