Lamar Odom still loyal to L.A. Lakers?

Lamar Odom might not be heading back to Los Angeles as a Laker, but that didn't stop him from leaving Dallas in purple and gold - the Lakers' team colors.

On Wednesday, Lamar flew from Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport to L.A., and his clothing sent a silent message of allegiance to the Lakers, who traded him to the Dallas Mavericks in December.

"He took his jacket off and he was wearing a predominantly purple shirt with gold words in the shape of the Larry O'Brien trophy [which is presented to the NBA champions each year]," a passenger told Life & Style. "The shirt is from his Rich Soil fashion line. Even though it's not a true Lakers championship T-shirt, it still sends a pretty clear message."
