Dwight Howard Accused Of Threatening Alleged Cisgender Ex-Boyfriend
DWIGHT HOWARD
A cisgender man—who many believed to be a trans- gender woman—has come forward to accuse Dwight Howard of sexual harass- ment and threatening his life. Last Saturday, Twitter user Masin Elije took to the so- cial platform and went into detail about their alleged re- lationship and the events leading up to the present day accusation.
Elije said he met Howard on the set of Wild ‘N Out. “We made eye contact and a week later he was in my DMs,” and soon after the two began exchanging intimate photos.
Elije then posted a direct message between him and the Washington Wizard center in which he asks if his friends and family know of his deal- ing with transgender women and men, to which the 32- year-old allegedly side- stepped the question.
Problems later arose in their alleged relationship when Elije learned Howard was sleeping with other peo- ple. Initially, Elije assumed Howard was having sex with prostitutes, but later realized the one time NBA All-Star was attending transgender sex parties.
The relationship was over according to Elije, and after he confronted him he al- legedly threatened him. Elije then says he began receiving private calls and one of Howard’s employees, a man named Calvin, began hurling homophobic threats because he denied the alleged “hush money” that was offered.
Elije alleges he’s afraid for his life because of the threats he received from Howard’s camp.
He said he’s contacted au- thorities, but tweeted if any- thing happens to him to please never stop fighting for his justice.

In Vehicle Accident,
But Not Injured
Stephen Curry, who is currently out with a groin in- jury but leading the NBA in scoring, was on his way to the team practice when the crash happened on Highway 24 before 9 AM. California Highway Patrol said Curry’s vehicle was hit twice, once by a car that spun out and then by a vehicle that rear-ended his Porsche, causing damage. Police blamed weather for the inci- dent.

Phil Mickelson Finally
Exorcises His Tiger
Woods Demons
To Win $9M Prize
PHIL MICKELSON
ing made his par putt while Woods needed to hit a six- footer to maintain the tie. On any other day, a six-footer would have been a gimme for Tiger, but on Friday, he was undependable from 10 feet in. He missed a par putt from three feet on No. 2, and the misses from close range kept on coming.
Mickelson also endured his share of shaky moments early on, starting with a missed nine-foot birdie putt on the first hole. That cost him a $200,000 side bet for failing to deliver his promised opening birdie.
"It didn't break, damn it," he muttered softly.

As
Woods began promoting his $9M winner- take-all match with Phil Mick- elson, he as- sured the world he had been in Lefty's head for 20 years, and he insinuated he'd be there again Friday.
But by the end
of one of golf's longest days, Mickelson had finally exor- cised Tiger from his psyche.
The pay-per-view audi- ence likely will remember this match-play marathon mostly for lasting 22 holes and fin- ishing on a 93-yard sudden- death hole that the two played not once, not twice, but three times. Mickelson ended the proceedings by sinking a seven-figure putt from four feet, while Tiger missed his last chance from eight feet.
But Mickelson's actions on the 21st hole provided a lasting memory.
Mickelson had Tiger between the crosshairs, hav-
