This would be huge!

Lamar Odom looked like he was on the road to recovery back on October 1 when we snapped these exclusive photos, and not only did the NBA star reportedly meet with his former Los Angeles Lakers bosses earlier this week, but now TMZ is reporting that he's in talks to do a sit down with Oprah Winfrey.

Oprah and Lamar haven't come to an official agreement or set a date, but the website reports that topics will include Lamar's drug use, his troubled marriage to Khloe Kardashian and his future in basketball. "Lamar is game if the conditions are right," the site reports.

Wonder how much of a pay day he'd get for this? After all, Lindsay Lohan got $2 million for her first post-rehab interview and an eight-part docu-series, so maybe Lamar could get something in the seven-figure range as well? Or at this point is he just trying to preserve his reputation?
