Lamar Odom Checking Out of Rehab ... 'Doing Much Better'
Lamar Odom has completed a 35 day stint in rehab and will be heading back to his home in L.A. today ... TMZ Sports has learned.
Lamar initially checked into the San Diego treatment facility last month as a preventative measure fearing the anniversary of his son's death in 2006 would drive him back to drugs.
He was also struggling with the recent finalization of his divorce from Khloe Kardashian.
Sources close to Lamar tell us he's doing much better now after "successfully completing the program" and looks forward to getting on with his life back in Los Angeles.
Here's hoping he finds a clean bill of health in 2017.

Kylie Jenner I'm Postponing My 20th Birthday Thanks to Calendar SNAFU
Kylie Jenner's 20th birthday will be delayed by 10 days this year ... because her own calendar couldn't even get the date right.
The 2017 edition -- sold exclusively on her website -- lists her bday as August 20. Kylie was born on the 10th. On a positive note, there's lots of cake ... on Kylie.
The misprint isn't just a one-off fluke either. We're told it has appeared on multiple calendars since its release a couple weeks ago ... possibly all of them.
As we've reported ... Kylie, inc. was flooded with quality complaints last year, and this ain't a great start for 2017. At least the calendar got her dog's bday right.
Seems like a head or 2 might roll for this -- but Kylie's camp had no comment.

Kim Kardashian Loses Kardashian and West on Twitter
10:32 AM PT -- Now this is interesting ... Kim just restored "Kardashian West" to her Twitter name, around an hour after she began going just as "Kim." Unclear why she did and then undid it.
Say goodbye to Kim Kardashian West and say hello to just Kim.
Kim just made her first real move on Twitter since her robbery back in early October, and she's lost 2 famous monikers ... Kardashian and West. She changed her twitter name to just plain "Kim."
It seems ominous on the surface, but when you look a little deeper it doesn't seem to have anything to do with her fam. She just a posted candid video of her, Kanye and the kids.
The word is ... she's trying to rebrand herself as a one-named celeb, like Oprah and Cher.
Duly noted.

Rob Kardashian Blanketed with Same Good Luck Charm as Lamar
Rob Kardashian's hospital visit had a flash of Lamar Odom's near-death ER trip ... based on a revealing pattern.
Kris Jenner and Corey Gamble showed up at the West Hills Medical Center Wednesday night with a leopard print blanket in tow ... and it looked familiar.
You'll recall in October 2015, Lamar was wheeled in a gurney wrapped in the same patterned blanket ... which Khloe called a good luck charm that she believes helped save her ex-hubby's life.
We're told the blanket Kris brought to the ER wasn't Lamar's, but it was identical. Almost everyone in the family has one.
TMZ broke the story ... Rob checked himself into the ER after his rocky relationship with Chyna led to some pronounced weight gains and serious diabetes flare-ups.
Luckily for Rob, like Lamar, he made it out of the hospital.

Zach Galifianakis My Baby's Got the Kardashian Touch From the Same OB/GYN!
Zach Galifianakis' newest baby boy will be forever tied at the belly button to the Kardashians ... since his pops used Kim, Kourtney and Kris' same OB/GYN.
Zach's son, Rufus Emmanuel Lundberg, was delivered by none other than Dr. Paul Crane, who also delivered all the Kardashian babies as of late ... including Dream.
According to the birth certificate -- obtained by TMZ -- Rufus was born on Nov. 7 this year at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to his parents Zach and Quinn Lundberg.
It's strange ... Zach and Quinn have been married since 2012, but Rufus bears his mother's surname for some reason. Maybe Galifianakis was too much of a mouthful -- heck, maybe Kardashian would be more appropriate.
