LOS ANGELES — Khloe Kardashian believes only a move back to Los Angeles can save her marriage to struggling NBA star Lamar Odom.
Former Lakers forward Odom, 32, is looking for a new team for next season after ending a disastrous four-month spell with the Mavericks last month.
“Khloe is freaked out that if Lamar doesn’t sign with either the Lakers or possibly the Clippers, her marriage will be over,” the source told Radar Online.
The 32-year-old Odom endured a torrid time in Dallas, with the team privately blaming struggles in his personal life and reality TV commitments for his career-low figures on court.
But his off-the-court problems apparently will only increase if he opts to revive his post-Mavericks career outside of Los Angeles.
“[Kardashian] doesn’t feel that their marriage can handle another stressful move to another city,” the source added. “It’s not because she doesn’t support Lamar, she moved with him to Dallas, but it’s all Odom.”
A rep for Kardashian earlier this week denied reports that her and Odom’s E! program “Khloe & Lamar” was canceled so he could focus on his NBA career.
The second season of the show, following the marital exploits of the couple in a spinoff from the popular “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” concluded Sunday.
Kardashian, 27, is the youngest of the Kardashian trio of sisters that also includes Kourtney, 33, and Kim, 31.
