Former Laker Lamar Odom was finally able to get back on the basketball floor on Thursday for Spanish club Baskonia, but failed to make an impression in his first game overseas.
On Thursday, he mad his debut and according to the Associated Press, it did not go well.
Odom played just six minutes to finish the first half, grabbing two rebounds while committing three fouls.
The 34-year-old power forward showed a lack of match fitness and touch after 10 months out of the game as he also missed a 3-point attempt.
Odom did not return in the second half of the Euroleague game as coach Sergio Scariolo said Odom’s body was dealing with the aches and pains of a long layaway.
Odom averaged 13.3 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game over 13 NBA seasons.
