The District Attorney issued warrants for four men in the alleged beating of Moses Malone Jr., the son of NBA legend Moses Malone. The victim says he was attacked outside of a Houston strip club as retribution for a Facebook post that was disrespecting James Harden.
Moses Malone Jr. says he received text messages from someone close to Harden. He then says he was pulling up to V Live when he was rushed by a group of guys who threatened him over the Facebook post. Malone claims he was beaten down, someone snatched his chain and at least one person in the group flashed a 9mm handgun. According to his lawyer George Farah, the jewelry is valued at $15,000.
Malone told cops one of the alleged assailants — Darian Blount — is a bouncer at V Live and Harden is a “prominent customer at the location.”
Malone told cops the men were upset that Moses had gone to Facebook to publicly criticize the cost of Harden’s youth basketball camp in the days before the incident.
According to the criminal complaint, obtained by TMZ Sports, Malone told cops Blount said, “he had disrespected James Harden and that he need to be punished after that.”
Blount and the three other men have each been charged with aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon.
Important to note that James Harden has NOT been charged with a crime or accused of any wrongdoing.
