Lamar Odom shows more improvement at Los Angeles hospital

In only his first day at a Los Angeles hospital, former Lakers and Clippers forward Lamar Odom continued to progress with his recovery on Tuesday, according to multiple sources familiar with the situation.

Odom has shown improvement in various areas, sources said. He has spoken well enough to have to have telephone conversations. Odom’s appetite has also improved and he shared a meal with reality television star and estranged wife, Khloe Kardashian, in a private room at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on Monday night. Odom also will not need as much dialysis treatment to fix his kidneys as he did in the past week at Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center in Las Vegas.
