Dwight Howard is in the middle of an ongoing lawsuit alleging that he sexually assaulted a man over the summer and orchestrated an unwelcomed threesome, and now he’s speaking out. After Mase discussed the matter on his podcast with co-host Cam’Ron, Dwight Howard has choice words in response.
Earlier this week on the It Is What It Is talk show with Cam’Ron and Mase, the Harlem rapper and broadcaster mentioned Howard’s situation involving a man named Stephen Harper bringing a lawsuit against him. In Harper’s lawsuit, he alleges that Howard invited him to his home for a physical encounter but was blindsided by a transperson by the name of Kitty which Harper didn’t initially agree with.
Mase, as it usually happens on It Is What It Is, had their unique take on the situation with the host noting that if the act was indeed consensual, nothing about bringing in another person without their knowledge would come off as consent.
Check out Mase’s side of things in the video below from It Is What It Is. Start at the 43:00-minute mark for the comments referenced above.

Dwight Howard’s recent legal issues are a trending topic. MA$E had time to address the former NBA star and the allegations he is facing and it was pure comedy.
HipHopDX is reporting that the most recent episode of the viral sports commentary show It Is What It Is addressed Dwight Howard’s recent admission to courting another man. In 2021 the National Basketball League star was accused by Stephen Harper of sexual assault. The victim claims he met Howard online and the two then decided to meet in person. They finally did but it is alleged that Dwight invited a transgender individual named “Kitty” to Harper’s surprise.
Radar Online obtained the lawsuit documentation; it reads that Howard “grabbed Mr. Harper by the thighs, forcibly removed Mr. Harper’s underwear, held Mr. Harper down, and performed nonconsensual oral sex on Mr. Harper”. The filing also states “Mr. Harper was in fear of imminent bodily harm when he was pinned down and forced to remain in place while Defendant continued to sexually assault him.”
Around the 43-minute mark MA$E discusses the situation; the result is one of the most memorable comedic moments of the show’s history. “We got to stop telling people, ‘I don’t care what you do on your own time.’ Because we do care… And women, you got to stop. We got to stop telling n****s, ‘What you do in your own personal time has nothing to do with me.’ It does matter. Those are the lies that are going on in society,” he said.
The Harlem native went on to further explain his stance. “People will say, ‘It don’t matter.’ But as soon as they find out, it matters. So they outing them. When it comes down to making money off the story, it matters” he added. “When it comes down to who dating you it’s gonna matter. When it comes down to if you’re gonna be in the locker room with them, it matters. Because there’s about 30 teams who didn’t sign Dwight Howard because it matters.” As expected his co-hosts found the talk track hilarious resulting in Cam’ron and Stat Baby holding back their laughs. You can see MA$E discuss the situation below.

Dwight Howard is asking a court to dismiss the lawsuit of a man who claims that the former NBA star sexually assaulted him and attempted to rope the individual into an unsanctioned sexual act. Stephen Harper, the man who filed the lawsuit, says he met Dwight Howard via social media over two years ago.
Radar Online obtained the court records connected to the lawsuit in which Stephen Harper says that he met Dwight Howard and began having online conversations back in May of 2021. After reaching out on Instagram via a direct message, the pair exchanged phone texts with Howard reportedly stating that he was into a number of sexual acts and asked Harper to send him photos.
Howard responded in the case admitting to exchanging texts with Harper for a brief period in the summer of 2021, which included nude photos and videos. Howard also added that Harper came to his home on July 19, 2021, and entered his bedroom, both of them disrobing, and engaged in “consensual kissing.”
At this point, Harper claims that Howard invited another man to the bedroom reportedly dressed as a woman going by the name Kitty. Harper says that Howard attempted to get the pair to engage in a threesome, something Harper did not agree to. Kitty began to perform a sexual act on Howard with Harper expressing he wasn’t comfortable with the setup.
Harper then claims that Howard began touching his thigh and feeling him through his underwear, allegedly saying he “was going to do whatever” to Harper and shot down any resistance.
From Radar Online:
“Defendant stood up (towering over Mr. Harper), grabbed Mr. Harper by the thighs, forcibly removed Mr. Harper’s underwear, held Mr. Harper down, and performed nonconsensual oral sex on Mr. Harper,” the suit read. “Mr. Harper was in fear of imminent bodily harm when he was pinned down and forced to remain in place while Defendant continued to sexually assault him.”
While Howard admitted that Kitty was in the room, he claimed that all three were aware that a threesome would be taking place.
Dwight Howard is facing charges of assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and false imprisonment in the lawsuit.
We’ve got reactions from X, formerly known as Twitter, below.

A man put former Lakers star Dwight Howard on blast this week by sharing alleged text messages between himself and the retired NBA baller on social media.
RadarOnline obtained a copy of the court documents where a man named Stephen Harper filed for damages against Howard for a number issues–including assault and battery and allegedly attempting to coerce the man into having a threesome.
In the documents, Harper claims that it was he who reached out to Howard on Instagram on May 29, 2021, via Harper’s “secondary Instagram account.” He claimed to have sent his cell phone number. He alleges that Howard texted the number with a “devil emoji,” and that the two began texting regularly.
Harper alleges that Howard asks him if he knew who he was texting and that the man responded by sending his name and a screenshot of his “main” Instagram page. “After viewing Mr. Harper’s Primary Account, [Howard] indicated that [Howard] was waiting on [Mr. Harper] to send pics,” the court documents allege.
Harper claimed Howard told him he was “into freaky” sexual content and that he wanted to see Mr. Harper’s nudes and “c—shots,” per the court documents.
Howard, who has been caught up in salacious allegations before, reportedly told the man, “Now I want you to know I’m not like gay or anything. I’m jus a lil nasty sometimes. Ion wanna offend you.”
The suit notes that the pair communicated extensively, “From May of 2021 through July of 2021, Mr. Harper and [Howard] continued to exchange text messages, several of which included sexually explicit content, such as photographs and videos.”
Howard allegedly contacted Harper on July 19, 2021, to tell him he was “thinking about that meat,” and invited him to his Georgia home. Harper alleges that Howard told him that his son was home and that Harper would have to leave the home before everyone awakened.
Harper said he took an Uber to Howard’s home. While en route, he claimed Howard texted him asking if Harper wanted to have a threesome with a “dude” or a “girl.”
The man alleges that he declined a threesome, but that he did go to the home where the two engaged in consensual kissing and conversation before a man arrived dressed as a woman and called themselves “Kitty.”
Harper alleges that Howard and Kitty had consensual oral sex and that Howard attempted to entice Harper into a threesome with them, but he resisted. He then alleges that the former NBA player, told him he was “going to do whatever” and he was “going to like it.”
Harper then alleges that he was intimidated by Howard and “Kitty,” and that “Defendant stood up (towering over Mr. Harper), grabbed Mr. Harper by the thighs, forcibly removed Mr. Harper’s underwear, held Mr. Harper down, and performed nonconsensual oral sex on Mr. Harper,” the suit read. “Mr. Harper was in fear of imminent bodily harm when he was pinned down and forced to remain in place while Defendant continued to sexually assault him.”
Harper continues to share more graphic details including that Kitty “anally penetrated” Howard while Howard grabbed his head and shoved his penis into Harper’s mouth.
Harper claimed after the men were finished, he immediately put on his clothes and called an Uber. He said he felt “extremely violated and humiliated and was in complete shock.”
Harper alleges that “Kitty” drove him home.
The lawsuit accused Howard of assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and false imprisonment. A request for damages has not been specified.
Despite previous allegations, Howard has maintained that he is not gay. He has 5 children by several women and RadarOnline was unable to reach him for comment on their story.
Nevertheless, Twitter is having a field. See for yourself in the gallery.
