The Los Angeles Clippers three biggest stars didn't hesitate before paying a visit to one of their former teammates in his time of need.

Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, and DeAndre Jordan went to see Lamar Odom at Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas on Thursday upon returning from the team's preseason stint in China, according to the Los Angeles Times' Brad Turner.

Odom has been hospitalized since Tuesday after being found unconscious at Nevada's Love Ranch brothel with blood and a white substance coming from his nose and mouth, according to the Nye County Sheriff's Office.

The two-time NBA champion has been making steady progress in his recovery, with the 35-year-old reportedly emerging from a coma and being conversational after having his breathing tube removed, although he still requires a breathing mask.

Odom spent the first four years of his career with the Clippers after being selected fourth overall in 1999. He returned to the team for a full 82-game slate in 2012-13, the only season he played alongside Paul, Griffin, and Jordan.

Former Los Angeles Lakers teammate Kobe Bryant has also visited Odom.
