Late Wednesday night there was a TMZ report that Derrick Rose was named (along with two of his associates) in a lawsuit accusing him of rape and other grisly and heinous acts. The plaintiff is anonymous, and alleges that she and Rose had a relationship between 2011 and 2013, with the rape occurring in August of 2013.
The lawsuit's been confirmed to exist (hey, it was TMZ, you never know) and filed in Los Angeles County (via).
A spokesperson for Rose has since issued a denial (via):
The plaintiff's allegations are completely false and without any factual basis.
