Blaylock was behind the wheel of a Cadillac Escalade on Friday in Clayton County, south of Atlanta, when he crossed over the median and into oncoming traffic, Jonesboro police chief Franklin Allen told the Journal-Constitution. It was not clear why Blaylock’s car crossed the center median.

The former basketball player’s Cadillac hit another vehicle in a head-on collision, the Journal-Constitution reported. The crash injured two people in addition to Blaylock, and all three people were transported to Atlanta Medical Center, where Blaylock was on life support, Allen told the paper.

A woman is suing Philadelphia 76ers star Nick Young for sexual assault — claiming he roofied her back in 2011 … took her to his place and then raped her.

The woman filed the lawsuit anonymously under the name Jane Doe, claiming she ran into Young at Crown Bar in West Hollywood … and he bought her and her friend champagne.

According to the suit, the woman’s recollection of the evening ceased shortly after s he downed the drink … and she believes it’s because Young had slipped the date rape drug gamma-Hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) into it.

The woman claims she woke up the next morning in Young’s bed, bleeding from her vagina and rectum.

She says Young admitted to having sex with her the night before, but claimed he stopped because she passed out.

According to the suit, the woman demanded to be taken home by Young — he obliged — and she beelined for the UCLA Santa Monica Rape Treatment Center, where she took a rape kit and was tested for STDs. She claims a test at the center confirmed she had been drugged, and determined the injuries to her vagina and rectum were consistent with rape.

Following the hospital treatment, the woman says she’s continued to undergo psychiatric evaluations.

She’s suing Young for sexual battery, sexual assault, false imprisonment, and more — demanding unspecified damages. She’s also suing Crown Bar for negligence.
