Lamar Odom: Lakers Star and Wife Khole Involved in Serious Car Accident in NYC

LA Lakers super six man Lamar Odom and wife Khole Kardashian had a very unexpected change of plans on Saturday.

The couple was in Queens New York visiting where Lamar grew up. They had plans to visit old friends of Odom and drive around the city.

The plans changed dramatically.

Mediatakeout.com, a site that apparently really likes capitalized words a whole lot, has the details:

NBA superstar Lamar Odom and Khloe Kardashian were involved in a DEVASTATING CAR CRASH - where Lamar's automobile SMASHED into a motorcycle.

According to a MediaTakeOut.com WITNESS, Lamar's automobile was traveling in QUEENS NY . . on its way to visit a barber shop in Lamar's old neighborhood. Well before arriving, Lamar's car RAN INTO a motorcyclist - seriously injuring him.

The cyclist is now in ELMHURST hospital in Queens. Early reports are that a YOUNG BOY - who was a pedestrian IN THE VICINITY when the accident occurred was also SERIOUSLY INJURED.

We're told that neither Lamar, nor his wife Khloe Kardashian who is in NYC with him, were injured.

Luckily the couple is ok, but thoughts and prayers go out to the motorcyclist that is in far worse shape as well as the 15-year old pedestrian. The current conditions on the two have yet to be disclosed.

It was a tough weekend for Odom that got even worse. He originally flew back to his home town to attend the funeral of his cousin.

The 6-10 forward was reportedly very distraught over the whole ordeal and an already tough weekend got even worse.

It is a good thing Odom is ok because now that the NBA is in full on lockout mode, Odom doesn't have the incredible health insurance benefits he normally has with the LA Lakers.

A catastrophic injury would have to be paid for on his own dime.

But fear not, Odom is ok and Saturday's incident will not have any sort of effect on his status heading into the new NBA season.
