Lamar Odom & Ray Lewis Cast In “Dancing With The Stars”

Once Laker-great and sixth man of the year, Lamar Odom has found a way of staying in the headlines long passed his career’s end. Whether it’s his relationship with the Kardashian family or being the subject of numerous controversies (one of which resulting in an iconic Steven A Smith rant), Odom has always found a way to remain topically relevant. Now, that relevance continues through a Dancing with the Stars casting.
