Report: Harassment Charges Against Lakers’ DeMarcus Cousins Dropped

The charges of third-degree harassing communications against injured Lakers center DeMarcus Cousins have been dropped and a misdemeanor case has been dismissed, Cousins’ lawyer Moshe Donald told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski on Friday.

This summer, a warrant had been issued for the arrest of Cousins on a misdemeanor domestic violence charge in Mobile, Ala.

The warrant filed by Christy West, the mother of their 7-year-old child, alleged that Cousins threatened to "put a bullet through" her "f---ing head" if she forbid their seven-year-old son, Amir, from attending a wedding between Cousins and his new girlfriend, Morgan Lang.
