Dwight Howard has had one heck of a week.

Howard has denied accusations by a Georgia man who says he was sexually assaulted by the former NBA star and another person.

Stephen Harper filed a state civil lawsuit against Howard in July, alleging assault and battery, false imprisonment and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Now Howard and his team have released an official statement about his recent allegations:

Screen Shot 2023 10 29 at 5.18.23 PM

This is a civil case that was made public for profit. In this case, the accuser is solely suing Dwight Howard and has refrained from suing the other party in which he claims to be involved. It is important to know that these matters were NEVER about sexual assault. This was merely about money and greed. Such individuals, have made continuous attempts to elicit payment from Dwight. This has resulted in intimidation of not only Dwight, his family and friends have also been targeted as well.

The accuser took to social media, only after being ignored by Howard.

Over the duration of several years the accuser has set out to hire attorneys whom either declined the case or dropped the case after payment from Dwight was denied.

Dwight hopes that people spend as much time covering his innocence, his numerous ventures to improve the lives of people through his global initiatives, his efforts to improve the quality of life of all people, despite race, creed, culture, sex, sexual orientation, and others.  

Through efforts like his 750 acre farm, his community outreach, and his 18yr track record of global philanthropy, Dwight looks forward to fans, viewers and spectators alike to focus their time and energy on what matters, which are the positive endeavors that Dwight is actively working on for community, with negativity as the least important focus.

In the past, people have tried to take advantage of Dwight, by attempting to use blackmail for money by fabricating stories and taking advantage of his kind nature.

By taking immediate action, Dwight’s legal team is aggressively pursuing anyone who is online or otherwise attempting to go after his name with false claims. Dwight strongly empathizes with any real cases of sexual assault and believes that fabricated stories as such make it difficult for the real victims of true crimes to come forth.

Assault has never been an element in Dwight’s character and he has never sexually assaulted ANYONE. The insensitivity of the individuals making such claims to damage his reputation is unfortunate. However, Howard plans to continue to live his life with grace and not let such false claims ruin his joy + spirit.

Best + Blessings,
Dwight Howard + Team

by

Over the summer, Dwight Howard was sued for alleged battery and sexual assault of a male model named Stephen Harper. Harper claims that he traveled to Howard’s house to participate in a threesome. According to him, there was a man dressed like a woman named Kitty there when he arrived, who he didn’t know would be involved. He also alleges that upon deciding that he no longer wanted to participate, Howard performed oral sex on him without consent, and forced him to reciprocate.

Howard confirmed that he and Kitty did meet with Harper to have sex, however, he insists everything that happened was consensual. Another one of Howard’s alleged former sexual partners has come forward since, corroborating Harper’s claims. According to influencer and author Masin Elije, Howard has a history of sexual misconduct. “He goes to sex parties and preys on younger men, which is why he originally why he threatened, forced, and tried to intimidate me into signing a NDA,” Elije alleged. Elije also claims that Kitty harassed them in 2018.

Dwight Howard’s Attorney States Sexual Assault Claims are An Attempt for Profit

Dwight Howard Wants to Transition His Game to be Like Kevin Durant

Dwight Howard’s lawyer is speaking out on behalf of his client, facin a lawsuit over sexual assault. According to the lawyer, Howard engaged in “a private consensual encounter,” which is now being “made public for profit.”

“The truth is Mr. Howard blocked Mr. Harper on social media and then was confronted with two options—pay to protect his reputation or have a fabricated story made public,” Howard’s attorney Justin Bailey said to ESPN.

Dwight Howard has revealed that he did meet up with a man he met on Instagram but did not sexually assault him. Radar Online obtained court docs, revealing the legendary big man first connected with his accuser, Stephen Harper, in May 2021.

Harper connected with Howard on Instagram, exchanging phone numbers and eventually explicitly images and text messages. The court docs revealed Howard admitted to “consensual kissing,” leading to a man dressed as a woman emerging under the name Kitty.

Kitty was brought in for a threesome, which Harper denied due to being uncomfortable. Howard would then touch Harper’s “penis through his underwear.” Harper says he asked for Howard to stop, but the All-Star center refused and would do what he wanted and Harper was “going to like it.”

The lawsuit reads Howard “grabbed Mr. Harper by the thighs, forcibly removed Mr. Harper’s underwear, held Mr. Harper down, and performed nonconsensual oral sex on Mr. Harper.” Howard stopped when Harper did not enjoy it. Harper states he was forced into performing oral sex and then driven home by Kitty.

Howard stated Kitty was present, but all activity was consensual.

Amid speculation surrounding his sexuality, Dwight Howard has told people to “stay out my damn business”. “What happens in my bedroom is my business. What happens in yours is your business,” Howard argued in a social media post. It comes after the likes of Stephen A. Smith and Ma$e took to their respective shows with massive audiences to preach about the salacious details of Howard’s private life.

However, as many people noted online, only half the story is being told in Howard’s latest post. It’s not just Howard’s sexuality that is being questioned. Howard has been accused of sexually assaulting a man at his home. Howard has formally denied sexually assaulting model Stephen Harper. However, he did not deny inviting Harper to his home for a threesome, which allegedly involved a cross-dresser named Kitty.

Meanwhile, the lawsuit has become the prime topic for a number of sports media personalities. Stephen A. Smith has claimed that the details of the Dwight Howard lawsuit, namely that he performed non-consensual acts on model Stephen Harper, is the reason that Howard went unsigned in the NBA this past offseason. The ESPN personality made his claims on the most recent episode of The Stephen A. Smith Show, becoming visibly disgusted while reading Harper’s account of what Howard did to him following an invitation for a threesome at Howard’s home.

Elsewhere, on It Is What It Is, Ma$e gave a similar conclusion to Smith. However, the rapper focused more on Howard’s sexuality than the claims of sexual assault. We gotta stop saying it doesn’t matter what happens behind closed doors because it does matter. People wouldn’t be talking about it if it didn’t matter. There’s a reason that 30 teams didn’t sign Dwight Howard,” the rapper argued. However, at no point in the monologue does Ma$e refer to the accusations being made against Howard.

Dwight Howard Continues To Troll Fans Amid Sexual Assault Allegations

by

As we have reported extensively over the last couple of days, Dwight Howard is facing some serious sexual assault allegations. The allegations come from a man named Stephen Harper, not to be confused with the former Prime Minister of Canada. Overall, the man claims he was supposed to meet with Howard for sex. However, things went left when Howard surprised the man with another man who was dressed as a woman. The person went by the name Kitty, and Howard allegedly wanted them all to have a threesome.

Subsequently, the man alleges how Howard eventually forced oral sex on him and continues to act coercively. Howard has denied any wrongdoing. Although he and his lawyer have confirmed that he did know the man and that they engaged in consensual sex. That said, fans want to get some clarity on the situation. Unfortunately, Howard is not taking this very seriously, at all. Instead, he is blaming the chatter on “haters.” For instance, in the video below, he responds to a fan asking about Kitty by just posting himself with a lion.

Dwight Howard Responds

In another TikTok, Howard can be seen furiously typing on his electronic devices in what can only be described as a skit. The caption to the skit is, “how they want me to respond to the haters online.” Overall, it is a pretty bizarre way to handle the situation. The allegations against Howard are extremely serious. However, he isn’t taking it all that seriously. Being accused of sexual assault isn’t exactly “hating.” There are very real criminal implications being alleged.

Dwight Howard has formally denied sexually assaulting model Stephen Harper. Howver, he did not deny inviting Harper to his home for a threesome, which allegedly involved an individual named Kitty. Based on the accounts given by Howard and Harper, it is unclear if Kitty is a transgender individual or simply a cross-dresser. Furthermore, Harper alleges that he was forced to perform sexual acts on Howard and that Howard performed non-consensual acts on him after he objected to participating in the account. Howard has been sued by Harper but has not been formally charged with a crime.

Ma$e Focuses More On Howard’s Sexuality Than His Sexual Assault

However, it’s not the first time that Ma$e has addressed the Dwight Howard allegations. Back in August, he and Cam’ron appeared to imply that Dwight Howard’s sexuality was more of a concern than the sexual assault allegations against him. In the episode, Cam’ron claimed that days before the assault allegations were made public, Howard’s team reached out. Their intention was apparently to secure an appearance for Howard. Cam’ron then proceeded to ask his co-host how he would react. In particular, given the revelations, how he would react if he was on a team and playing with Howard. “I don’t want to say it because we’re on the air. But I would probably want Howard to have his own space,” Ma$e argued. The comment implied that he would want Howard segregated from the team due to his attraction to men.

Cam’ron appears to agree with Ma$e, bringing up a video where Odell Beckham Jr. appears to appreciate his teammates’ asses. But don’t worry, Cam’ron later clarifies that he’s not homophobic because he “got gay relatives”. However, what’s most telling is that during this entire clip, no one actually brings up the allegations Howard has been hit with. The entire conversation is done through the lens of Howard’s sexuality, not the heinous acts he has been accused of committing.
