The site reports that the conversation between the pals motivated him to check into rehab around the time of his deceased son's birthday.

MailOnline has contacted Lamar's reps for comment.

The news comes as Lamar has revealed what triggered his near fatal drug overdose.

Clarity: The former NBA sports star reportedly spoke to Gregory in the penitentiary's 'visitor's room for 45 minutes' about hitting rock bottom and losing everything dear to him

A clip of the American star speaking about that day in October last year has been released ahead of an upcoming special on The Doctors.

While the television show released a teaser trailer shortly after the basketball star entered rehab again this week, on Friday morning The Doctors released a longer clip in which Lamar opens up about his battle with drugs.

The sit down interview with Dr Travis Stork is the first time Lamar has spoken about his overdose in a Nevada brothel that left him in a coma.

Asked what is his last memory before waking up in hospital, a somber Lamar says: 'Being in that damn brothel and thinking I was going to just rest a little bit.

In his own words: A clip of Lamar Odom talking about his overdose for the first time on The Doctors was released Friday

'I wasn't in a good place mentally, especially mentally, before that incident happened.'

The ex-husband of Khloe Kardashian continues with tears welling up in his eyes: 'Me and my wife at the time were going through some things. I was in a dark place.'

Lamar, who is still recovering from his almost fatal overdose, is trying to find some positives in what occurred.

'So I guess they say everything happens for a reason so I guess I'm here so I can tell a story.'

The former Laker revealed he awoke in hospital afraid and confused with his now ex-wife Khloe by his side.

Trigger: The 37-year-old says he remembers being in that brothel and and he 'I wasn't in a good place mentally, especially mentally, before that incident happened'

'I didn't know until Khloe [Kardashian] had told me that I was in a coma. I couldn't even speak at the time. I couldn't talk. Nothing would come out when I would open my mouth, so I was scared.'

Lamar has been seen at a San Diego, California, rehab facility with his rep confirming he is making sure he stays healthy.

The rep told US Weekly : 'After consulting with his family and friends, and meeting with Dr. Travis Stork of The Doctors, he has decided it is best he take time to focus on himself.

'He is dedicated to leading a healthy lifestyle and being the best father he can be to his children.'

It is almost 14 months to the day since the former Laker was found unconscious in a Nevada brothel after near fatal drug overdose.

By his side: The former Laker revealed he awoke in hospital afraid and confused and his now ex-wife Khloe (pictured May) had to tell him what had happened

The star was left in a coma after the October 12, 2015, overdose and continues to struggle with long term health issues.

Last Friday, a Los Angeles judge signed off his divorce to Khloe, who had filed for divorce in December 2013 after the pair had been married for four years.

Khloe later rescinded the filing after Lamar's overdose and was by his side at the hospital almost around the clock but then re-filed citing irreconcilable differences in May.

The divorce will be official as of Saturday morning.
