Basketball player Lamar Odom's family is planning to stage an intervention to help him.

The 33-year-old has been abusing crack cocaine for at least two years and now his family is hoping to help him battle his drug addiction by getting him back to Queens, New York, where he grew up as he is partying very hard here, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"Lamar has been partying very hard in LA, hanging out with his friends and not going home to Khloe Kardashian. His family and his old friends are trying to get him home to Queens," a family source told NYPost Page Six.

"His family is hearing he is doing coke, crack, molly (ecstasy). He and his LA friends are going hard, wildly off the rails," added the source.

Odom was born in Queens where he was raised by his grandmother, Mildred.
