After planning to sign Jamil Wilson to a 10-day contract, the Los Angeles Lakers changed course and won’t complete a deal with the free-agent forward, league sources told ESPN.

The Lakers reneged on the deal Wednesday after a TMZ report surfaced that a woman had filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles County Superior Court alleging that she contracted a sexually transmitted disease from Wilson while dating him.
