Odom is fulfilling his promise to Bam in April when the former first extended help.

“If he wants the help, then it’s here for him. I’m reaching out my arms to him,” Odom previously said, as relayed by OutKick’s Amber Harding. “All he has to do is show up.”

Bam was apprehended in Los Angeles over the weekend after evading friends and family members amid threats to smoke crack on the streets to see his son, Phoenix, again.

Margera’s estranged wife, Nicole Boyd, has not allowed communication between Bam and his son over erratic behavior stemming from his drug addiction.

Thankfully, Margera still has people on his team ready to see him recover. Margera promised Odom to continue his treatment at another Odom rehab location.

Everyone needs a friend like Odom — and with addiction more prevalent in this country more than ever–this is beyond refreshing to see.
