Odom Reconsiders Pros Move. Eyes Return to URI
Providence AP Lamar Odom, star forward for Rhode Island, says he wants to return for another college season. URI officials note NCAA rules on signing with an agent complicate eligibility and plan a possible waiver appeal. Odom mentored a 17.6 point and 9.4 rebound season, including a buzzer beater against Temple to win the A10 title. He skipped league physicals and workouts with Charlotte Hornets and Chicago Bulls, prompting questions about his future.
