Troubled former NBA star Lamar Odom was found unconscious at a Nevada brothel on Tuesday afternoon, according to Nye County Sheriff Sharon Wehrly. Odom had been reportedly partying at the brothel throughout the weekend.

The ex-Laker, former NBA lottery pick and Keeping Up With the Kardashians reality TV star has reportedly battled drug problems since before his NBA career ended last year.

Emergency responders found Odom at Dennis Hof's Love Ranch South — called Dennis Hof's Bunny Ranch by police — in Crystal, Nevada, around 3:30 p.m. and transported him about 20 miles to Desert View Hospital in Pahrump, according to authorities. After he was stabilized, Odom was taken to Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas by ambulance. Although a Mercy Air helicopter had been arranged for his transport, Odom was not airlifted to Sunrise Hospital "due to his stature," the Nye County sheriff said in a press release.

Odom reportedly arrived at the brothel on Saturday and had been "partying with the girls for days" alone. He was found unconscious in his VIP suite at the Love Ranch with fluid coming from his nose and mouth before being intubated, according to TMZ. The emergency call about Odom's condition came from Richard Hunter, the brothel's media director, police said.

The telephone at Dennis Hof's Love Ranch South gave a steady busy signal on Tuesday, and the nurse who answered the phone at the Desert View Hospital told Mashable she could not give out any information, citing HIPAA laws.

Odom was first-team NBA All-Rookie in 2000, Sixth Man of the Year in 2011 and won titles with the Lakers in 2009 and 2010. After coming from a chaotic upbringing in New York, he ascended to an even higher level of mainstream fame after marrying Khloe Kardashian in 2009. They divorced in 2013.

That same year, Odom reportedly checked into a rehab facility before abruptly leaving one day later.
