It's a sad time for Lamar Odom as only days after death of good pal Jamie Sangouthai, another close friend of the player has died of drug overdose.

According to Us magazine, the L.A. County Coroners office confirmed that Bobby Heyward, a producer and writer, died on June 20 at age 30, however they did not confirm an official cause of death.

Ironically, Heyward's final Instagram post was a tribute to Sangouthai. Sangouthai which read "#RIP To my big brother Jamie who always brought light into any room he walked into and laughter as well at all times J you will always be missed. Family for life. #BandOfBrothers #tbt."

An insider said that Odom is "beside himself."

Odom's estranged wife Khloe Kardashian was too close to Heyward, and had reached out to the NBA star after his friend's death.
