Then, on Monday, the NBA player's agent, Jeff Schwartz, shot down rumors that Odom had been missing for 72 hours.

"Lamar is not missing. His wife knows exactly where he is," he told ESPN, though he declined to reveal his client's whereabouts.

Schwartz added: "Playing in the NBA is still very much a part of Lamar's plans."

Kardashian Odom has been tight-lipped about the media scrutiny surrounding her husband, though she did tweet an angry message on Sunday.

""Really hard to sit here and listen to people talk s--- about my family! F--- you and shame on you! I'm too protective for this s---!" she wrote.
