Mayo Dropped By Agent Amid Allegations

LOS ANGELES (AP) ― Former USC basketball star O.J. Mayo has been dropped by his agent ahead of the June 26th NBA draft because of the "overwhelming intensity" of allegations that Mayo illegally received cash and gifts.

Mayo had announced that Calvin Andrews of Bill Duffy Associates would represent him. But the Walnut Creek-based sports management group issued a statement Thursday saying their association was over.

The statement said "Due to the overwhelming intensity of recent allegations regarding the recruitment of O.J. Mayo, we feel that our representation of him is a distraction for he and his family at this time."

Mayo has denied the allegations.
