AceShowbiz - Many celebrities flocked the Staples Center on Monday, February 25 to attend the memorial service for late NBA star Kobe Bryant. Among those who paid tribute for him was fellow athlete Lamar Odom, and that also meant he could easily run into his ex Khloe Kardashian at the event which was named "Celebration of Life".

Despite that, Lamar allegedly "had to put all his emotion and time and concentration to Kobe and Gianna today." A source reveals to HollywoodLife.com that Lamar, who was teammates with Kobe on the Los Angeles Lakers between 2004-2011, "wasn't worried about seeing anyone from the Kardashian family at all."

In addition to Khloe, former mother-in-law Kris Jenner and former sister-in-law Kim Kardashian alongside her husband Kanye West were present at the memorial. However, Lamar didn't let that bother him because he knew "he was there for his brother and he loved being surrounded by all his friends from the NBA to grieve together."

The insider noted that Lamar, who is currently engaged to fiancee Sabrina Parr, "knew Khloe was there but it wasn't the day to feel apprehensive towards her or anyone or anything." The source continued, "During the service, they were away from each other and if they crossed paths Lamar would never make it about himself or any drama. He would have said 'Hello' and moved on with his day. It was not on his radar at all to interact with anyone in the Kardashian family. Lamar was there for Kobe and Gianna only, that is where he focused all of his attention."

He previously talked about his heartbreak following the death of Kobe and Gianna in a helicopter crash on January 26. "I haven't felt a pain or a shock like this since my son passed away in 2006," he shared on "Good Morning America" on January 28, referring to the loss of his 6-month-old son Jayden who died from sudden infant death syndrome.
