Oden speaks candidly about his seven surgeries, the burden of carrying Portland’s expectations, and how he relied on substance use, including alcohol, to numb all his physical and emotional pain.The typically soft-spoken and private athlete steps forwards to share his story so younger athletes recognize the value of getting help, which he acknowledges comes in all shapes and sizes.
