Lamar Odom has been moved to the Los Angeles area to continue his recovery a week after being found unresponsive at a legal Nevada brothel.
The Odom family confirmed the news that the former NBA star left the Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center in Las Vegas, in a statement released to Access Hollywood.
"On behalf of JaNean Mercer and the entire Odom family, we would like to send a tremendous THANK YOU to the illustrious medical team at Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center in Las Vegas. Your superb, round-the-clock care gave us the comfort and assurances we desperately needed to know Lamar would persevere," the statement read.
The Odom family asked for the public's continued prayers for his health.
"As Lamar begins a new chapter in his road to recovery, PLEASE continue to uplift him and the family in prayer. He continues to make miraculous progress, taking a few steps in Los Angeles. We couldn't be more overjoyed! We realize Lamar's continued improvement will not be easy, however his unrelenting strength and faith in GOD will pull him through, the statement continued.
Following Odom's hospitalization, many members of the Kardashian-Jenner family – including estranged wife Khloe – rushed to be by the athlete's side.
