Last night a bizarre story unfolded after retired NBA player Ray Allen requested a restraining order claiming he'd been catfished by a man, who pretended to be a woman online, who was now stalking him in real life [click here if you missed that].
The man in question claims his gender was never a secret to Ray...
From TMZ
Bryant Coleman says Ray Allen's allegations that he pretended to be a woman to obtain "private information" about Ray are false.
The truth, according to Coleman, is that Allen offered up info -- along with pictures and videos -- knowing full well that Coleman is a man. He says their relationship goes back several years.
"[Ray's] account of our relationship is false," Coleman says in a statement to TMZ Sports.
"Ray knows how I look, he knows how my voice sounds, he knows how I think, and most importantly, he knows my heart."
"However, because of confidentially considerations, I am not in a position to provide a more detailed response to Mr. Allen's false and salacious claims. I will rely on the courts to protect me against Mr. Allen's violent threats and false accusations."
The exact nature of the alleged "violent threats" is unclear, but as we previously reported ... Coleman obtained a restraining order, claiming Allen was stalking him.
