NBA player Lamar Odom was found unconscious in his room at Love Ranch South in Nevada. The brothel's staff called 911 immediately upon seeing the player's condition.
According to CNN, Odom started to spit a pink liquid when he was turned on his side.
E! News reported that the two-time NBA champion has taken herbal Viagra during his stay in the brothel. He was there for four days.
Odom was taken to a Pahrump hospital and was later moved to Sunrise Hospital and Medical Center in Las Vegas.
It was originally planned that he was to be airlifted but the 6-foot-10 player would not fit the helicopter.
Odom's ex-wife Khloe Kardashian was at his bedside since Tuesday night and she's been inconsolable since. She requests prayers and for people to respect his privacy.
According to the latest update provided by E! News, the former Lakers star suffered from drug overdose. The information came from an insider in the hospital where he's currently confined.
He reportedly suffered an "ischemic stroke," which is a result of a blood clot that prevents the blood flow to the brain. This kind of stroke is often seen in cocaine and other drug-related overdose.
The insider also revealed that he most likely suffered a brain damage but the extent still remains unknown.
Brothel owner Dennis Hof said that Odom has been polite and reserved when he checked in at the Love Ranch. However, he told Fox News that the player got a call on Sunday that got him really upset.
Hof said that the player quickly moved and continued to enjoy his stay.
Kardashian divorced Odom in 2013 due to irreconcilable differences but it has yet to be finalized. She is the one making medical decisions for Odom now since she is still technically his wife.
The former NBA star appeared in some episodes in "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" and also starred in his own show with his ex-wife in "Khloe & Lamar."
Kardashian has always been vocal about her love and care for her ex-husband and was even shown checking up on him in the recent episodes of KUWTK.
