Lamar Odom spent hours bonding with his friends in Glendale, Calif., on Tuesday, Oct. 15., E! News reported Wednesday.

Odom was pictured wearing his wedding ring, a white shirt and swetpants. He and group of friends were dining at Gavar Cuisine, an Armenian restaurant.

"Lamar looked very happy and had a huge smile on his face," a source said, noting that the free agent "looked skinny but not unhealthy."

The source said that Odom dined on lamb, chicken, seafood and beef dishes, as well as an array of salads, soups and appetizers.  The staff was described as accommodating and Odom was gracious in return. Those close to the basketball player believe he is turning his life around.

Odom has been plagued in recent months by rumors of his drug use and infidelity. His marriage to Khloe Kardashian has been strained and he is a free agent on the NBA circuit. Sources said that Odom was looking to reboot his life and return to how things used to be. He wanted to rejoin the L.A. Lakers.

"He is taking steps to get himself back on track," said. "He wants his old life back, although he realizes that might not include Khloé."
