Zion Williamson is back in the news after reports went wide that the NBA star was sued by a woman claiming to be an ex-girlfriend in Los Angeles on Thursday (May 29). The filing, which has harrowing details, allege that Zion Williamson raped and terroized the woman throughout their relationship.
The details of this story may be disturbing to some. Proceed with caution.
TMZ Sports reports that a Jane Doe filed the lawsuit and wrote in the filing that she began dating the New Orleans Pelican big man when he was a standout player at Duke University. The lawsuit lays out a September 2020 incident in which Jane Doe says that shortly after joining the Pelicans, Williamson, 24, allegedly raped and assaulted her in his Beverly Hills home.
Jane Doe claims that Williamson insulted her by calling the woman “stuck up” and the b-word, while also allegedly stating that she wouldn’t be able to go to sleep until she had sex with him. The woman also alleges that Williamson pinned her down and had sex with her, then later took her phone, threw it across the room, and choked her. The filing adds that Williamson reeked of alcohol during the alleged incident.
In October of the same year, Jane Doe claims that Williamson raped her again after he became angry that she wanted to visit friends in San Diego, and allegedly took the woman’s phone and laptop thus preventing. her from seeking medical care.
The filing went on to add that the rapes and assault continued in Lousiana, Texas, and California until the pair ended their relationship in 2023. Jane Doe also claims that Williamson allegedly threatened to have one of his security guards shoot her in the head several times during their union.
“We don’t want to litigate this case in the media,” Jane Doe’s attorney, Sam E. Taylor of The Lanier Law Firm, told TMZ Sports. “But I will say this is a very serious case as reflected in the pleadings that have been filed and our client looks forward to her day in court to seek justice in this matter.”
In 2023, adult performer Moriah Mills accused Williamson of domestic abuse during their relationship. Mills also had a very public meltdown regarding the dissolution of her and Williamson’s relationship. That same year, several women came forth and accused Williamson of cheating on them with other women.
Zion Williamson has yet to respond publicly to the allegations.
