star is being sued by a 23-year old model. The girl is claiming that he groped and threatened her n a Manhattan night club.

Kidd’s spokesman denies the allegations. calling it a “false” and “defamatory” attempt to get money out of the wealthy basketball player. [Kidd earns almost $20 million a year.]

The lawsuit, filed in Manhattan’s state Supreme Court, said Kidd “battered and assaulted” the woman in the Lower West Side club on Oct. 10 when he “grabbed her buttocks and crotch on multiple occasions.”

Apparently he was staring at her, he walked over and groped her and shoved her against the wall saying “‘If we have a fight, who do you think is going to win?”

A spokesman for the New York City Police Department confirmed on Oct. 17 that the woman had filed a criminal complaint against the NBA All Star, accusing him of the acts now alleged in the lawsuit that was filed Thursday.

But Adler said the district attorney’s office told him late Friday that prosecutors would not pursue charges against Kidd.

The woman’s lawsuit asks for unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.

Kidd’s lawyer, Paul Grand, issued a statement that said, “We have not yet seen the complaint, but these claims were false when they were first fabricated two months ago, and they remain false today. This lawsuit is nothing more than a brazen and defamatory search for a payout.”

Grand’s spokesman also said prosecutors told him no charges would be filed against Kidd.
