This weekend, Dwight Howard won the first NBA title of his career with the Los Angeles Lakers. His time with the Lakers was seen as a sort of redemption as he knuckled down and helped the team bag their 17th NBA championship after ten years. However, hours later, his former girlfriend Royce Reed accused him of neglecting his children while the Lakers star accidentally leaked some private messages during a celebratory IG live.
