Former NBA champion Lamar Odom is taking his career in an unexpected direction, becoming what TMZ describes as the first NBA star to launch an OnlyFans account.
The former Los Angeles Lakers standout confirmed the decision Tuesday, October 27, revealing that he plans to share a different side of his life with fans through the subscription-based platform.
And while OnlyFans is widely associated with adult entertainment, Odom isn’t revealing exactly how far he intends to go.
“People hear OnlyFans and automatically think one thing, but I’m not here to tell you what you will or won’t see,” Odom told TMZ.
The 46-year-old former basketball star suggested that subscribers could expect material they haven’t previously seen, teasing new revelations about his famously eventful personal life.
“I’ve lived a pretty wild life, and trust me, there are still a few surprises left,” he said.
“I’ve always been an open book, but there are some chapters people haven’t seen yet.”
According to sources close to Odom who spoke with TMZ, the former athlete intends to share risqué content, although his initial offerings reportedly won’t be particularly explicit.
His girlfriend, Rachel Bradley, is also getting involved.
Bradley has launched her own OnlyFans account, and sources indicate the couple could eventually collaborate on content.
No specific plans for those potential collaborations have been announced.
The move marks another surprising chapter for Odom, who spent years in the national spotlight as both a professional athlete and a reality television personality.
During his NBA career, Odom became a familiar name among basketball fans, particularly through his time with the Lakers.
He helped the franchise capture back-to-back NBA championships in 2009 and 2010, playing a significant role alongside Kobe Bryant and other members of the championship roster.
Odom was also recognized for his versatility on the court, earning the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year award in 2011.
His accomplishments established him as one of the league’s recognizable players before his life outside basketball began drawing widespread attention.
Odom’s marriage to reality television personality Khloé Kardashian further elevated his public profile, bringing his personal relationships and struggles into the entertainment spotlight.
The former couple appeared together on television, giving audiences an unusually intimate look at their lives.
Odom has also spoken publicly about difficult periods in his past, including personal challenges that attracted considerable media coverage.
His willingness to discuss those experiences appears to be part of the approach behind his latest venture.
Rather than promising a conventional celebrity subscription page, Odom is presenting the platform as an opportunity to reveal more of himself to interested followers.
OnlyFans allows creators to distribute exclusive content to subscribers, and although the platform is frequently associated with sexually suggestive material, its content varies among individual accounts, per TMZ.
For Odom, the venture represents a departure from the basketball court and the traditional entertainment appearances that have defined much of his post-NBA career.
It also creates the possibility of future projects with Bradley, whose participation adds another element to the announcement.
For now, Odom is keeping much of the content under wraps.
He has confirmed his arrival on the platform and acknowledged that subscribers may see a more provocative side of his life, but he hasn’t provided a detailed preview of what he intends to publish.
One thing is clear: Years after leaving professional basketball, Odom is still finding ways to surprise his audience.
And judging by his latest comments, he believes there are plenty of stories left to tell.
