George Napolitano/FilmMagicSay whaaat?!
First we were mentally preparing for Khloé Kardashian Odom's hoops-star hubby Lamar Odom to be traded to the New Orleans Hornets for all-star baller Chris Paul, but a proposed three-team deal ended up being blocked by the NBA a mere two hours later. And now, after trying to revive the deal for two days, the Los Angeles Lakers have officially pulled out of a revised version of that deal.
But even though the trade fell through again, Lamar is still on the move, headed to the NBA champion Dallas Mavericks.
Originally, the Lakers had agreed to send Pau Gasol to Houston and Sixth Man of the Year Lamar to New Orleans, with the Rockets then moving Luis Scola, Kevin Martin and Goran Dragic to the Hornets.
However, the Lakers will now trade Khloé's hubby to the Dallas Mavericks.
As for why the Lakers pulled out of the deal?
The team is now trying to make a deal for Orlando Magic center Dwight Howard.
Forget Keeping Up With the Kardashians—more like Keeping Up With the NBA, phew!
Big question: Will Khloé & Lamar Take Dallas? Stay tuned.
