Dwight Howard’s sexual assault reports leave Stephen A. Smith speechless
Stephen A. Smith is shocked by the severe claims of sexual assault against former NBA star Dwight Howard. The four-time NBA defensive player of the year is currently the focus of debate and is being looked at.
The seasoned journalist Smith described the information that was flashing on his screen in the most recent edition of his podcast. He responded angrily to the information about Howard’s activities.
Smith stated, “I can’t do this any longer,” as she read the Dwight Howard report.
“Fetch that off the screen, please. Are you gay, and do you wish to pursue that? Nice! Living their life doesn’t pose any problems for me. I have no judgment to render. I’m not here to pass judgment on the transgender population. However, the specifics—ugh, ugh!”
Smith introduced the subject to his audience before stating emphatically that he was pulling for Dwight Howard to return to the NBA, but things like this kept him from happening.
“That’s why teams didn’t want you,” said Smith. “Whether (teams) would admit it or not, and I’m not going to mention teams because I don’t want to incriminate anybody or accuse anybody or something I simply don’t know, I’m guessing. But the first thought that came to my mind ‘That’s why they don’t want (Dwight)”.

Dwight Howard disputes allegations of sexual assault
All of Stephen Harper’s claims of sexual assault and abuse against former Lakers centre Dwight Howard have been denied in a civil action that dates back to July 2021.
According to an ESPN story, Justin Baily, Howard’s attorney, stated, “What was a private consensual encounter was made public for profit, and Mr Howard looks forward to bringing the truth to light in a court of law.”
“Mr. Howard’s accusers are not entirely true. Mr. Howard wants to tell it like it is. Despite the fact that the subject matter and his celebrity profile made him an easy target, Mr Howard decided to have faith in the legal system and would rely on all upcoming court papers to stand on their own.
Currently, Howard competes in the Taiwanese professional basketball league. He last competed in the NBA with the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2021–2022 season, averaging 6.2 points and 5.9 rebounds in 16.2 minutes of action.
