Former NBA star Lamar Odom has been ordered to vacate his luxury Studio City mansion after failing to pay $45,000 in rent over three months. A Los Angeles court ruled on April 28, 2025, granting possession of the property to Executive Recovery Group, Inc., the company that leased the home to Odom. The ruling followed a lawsuit filed in March, alleging that Odom had entered into a month-to-month rental agreement in December 2024, agreeing to pay $15,000 per month. However, he reportedly failed to pay rent for January through March 2025, despite receiving multiple notices, including a three-day notice to pay or vacate the premises .
The Studio City property, once leased by the late rapper Mac Miller, has been the subject of public attention due to its association with celebrities. Odom, who earned over $115 million during his NBA career, has faced significant personal and financial challenges in recent years. In 2015, he suffered a near-fatal overdose at a Nevada brothel, resulting in multiple strokes and organ failure. He has since focused on recovery and helping others struggling with addiction, including opening Odom Wellness Treatment Centers .
The eviction marks another setback in Odom’s efforts to rebuild his life. Despite his past achievements and public efforts to overcome personal struggles, the incident underscores the ongoing challenges he faces in maintaining financial stability and personal well-being.
