It turns out that the conversation between free agent veteran Lamar Odom and New York Knicks' president Phil Jackson was more than just a friendly catch-up chat.

The Knicks are serious about possibly signing Odom, ESPN's sources indicate, and they may have a deal by Wednesday -- even if the team does not make the postseason.

The team is reportedly interested in working with Odom during the offseason with hopes that he could rebound next season after his personal issues sidetracked his playing career for the time being. In recent months, Odom has watched his high-profile marriage with Khloé Kardashian crumble after getting arrested for DUI while rumors accused him of drug abuse.

The potential for Odom to sign with the Knicks may seem baffling to some considering his age and the timing of the signing. The veteran basketball star is 34 years old and the Knicks will be wrapping up their regular season campaign in just a few days after the team was knocked out of contention this weekend. On the other hand, many could argue that the deal would make sense considering that Odom is from New York in the first place.

Meanwhile, Khloé Kardashin seems to be doing just fine without her estranged husband. Kardashian has been seen in public with rapper French Montana and dating rumors are starting to circulate. Kardashian made news when she removed "Odom" from her social media handles in recent months, which unsurprisingly sparked all sorts of rumors about the divorce either brewing or being finalized.

What do you think about all of this? Do you think Odom will find a team and Khloé will continue to spend time with French Montana or will the estranged couple reunite in the near future? In the comments section located down below, feel free to let us know what you think will happen.
