Celebrities have been known to come up with some pretty creative excuses when facing eviction, but ex-NBA star Jayson Williams' is a new one: The former basketball great has filed a lawsuit against his country club claiming they kicked his friends out of his home because they don't like black people!

The stunning accusation came to light in court documents filed in May of last year and obtained by Breaking Celebrity News. According to Williams' complaint, he left his friend Charles Houston in charge of his South Carolina mansion when he left the state in February 2010. Houston in turn "contracted with Micheal Walters, a licensed real estate broker with construction and real estate marketing skills" to help prepare the home for sale and provide security.
