College career

Odum played college basketball at Indiana State University, with the Sycamores, from 2010 to 2014. He led the Sycamores to a 4-yr record of 79-55 (.590), a MVC title and 4 post-season tournament berths (1x NCAA, 2x NIT, 1x CiT).

Professional career

After going undrafted in the 2014 NBA Draft, Odum played on the Indiana Pacers' Orlando Summer League team.[2][3] He then played on the Sacramento Kings' Las Vegas Summer League team.[4][5]

Odum began his pro career with the Greek League club PAOK for the 2014–15 season,[6] choosing to sign with the Greek club, rather than take his chances at that particular time in an NBA training camp, despite a couple of offers from NBA teams.[7]

After leading PAOK to a 3rd-place finish in the Greek League, Odum signed with Medi Bayreuth of Germany for the 2015-16 Bundesliga season.[8]
