Back when Dwight Howard was a virgin and wanted “Jesus” to be the NBA logo and the Basketball Wives reality watch was a thing people actually watched, Royce Reed who was a dancer with the Magic at the time put it on Howard. This led to them having a son named Braylon. This is the first of MANY children Howard would have been many women (rumors say the number could be as high as 10 kids spread across the world).
For the most part after some really messy years of them fighting each other in court over all sorts of things, things have been very quiet with Royce, Dwight and their now teenage son Braylon.
That all changed today according to Radar Online.
Another blow for Basketball Wives star Royce Reed. According to documents obtained by Radar, the star has turned herself into police and been charged with neglect of a child, which is a third-degree felony, on Thursday, March 10, in Orange County, Fla. The case involves her 14-year-old son Braylon, whom she shares with athlete Dwight Howard.
According to the documents, police state Braylon is working on issues with professionals due to past incidents. Braylon was supposed to follow certain rules set by a judge — specifically, he was not allowed to hang out with kids two years younger than him without an adult. Braylon is accused of breaking the rules and Royce is being blamed. Royce appears to have cooperated fully with investigators as did her boyfriend. Braylon was interviewed by police about the accusations.
During the chat, he was asked the last time he saw Howard. The report states Braylon said the last time was “when he was in town for a basketball game, which was a while ago.” He said the last time he was at Howard’s home was “sometime during the 2020 quarantine.” Braylon claimed he had been in contact with his father, but they have not spoken since they got into an argument.
There is no word on why Braylon isn’t allowed to hang our with kids without adult supervision, but it does appear the strain of his parents’ relationship has caused him problems in his young life. It appears that Braylon night have been in some bullying situations where he was the bully.
