Basketball player Lamar Odom was determined to be at Kanye West's Yeezy show to give the rapper his "love and support".

The 36-year-old basketball player made his first public appearance since his near-fatal collapse last October at the "All Day" rapper's Yeezy show and "Life of Pablo" listening party at New York's Madison Square Garden, reported TMZ.

West, 38, who is married to Kim Kardashian West, the sister of Lamar's estranged wife Khloe Kardashian - was a frequent visitor to the former NBA star's hospital bedside, where he would play rough cuts of his new music.

And Odom began remembering some of the specific lyrics, in one of the first signs his condition was improving.
 

West personally ushered Odom to his seat at the show, where he sat with his estranged wife and the rest of the Kardashian/Jenner family.

The "Kocktails with Khloe" star and her spouse had flown from Los Angeles to New York by private jet.
