Carlos Boozer has struggled to stay on the court the last few years, but the Utah Jazz forward recently came very close to landing in court. And the target of Boozer's legal ire? None other than Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Prince.
According to a report on the Smoking Gun website, Boozer filed a complaint against the rock star for allegedly performing an extreme makeover on the NBA star's West Hollywood home, which Prince is renting for $70,000 a month.
Boozer originally filed suit in January, alleging that Prince violated terms of his eight-month lease by making unauthorized home improvements, including "painting the exterior of the (house) with purple striping, 'Prince symbol,' and numbers 3121."

Matt Harpring's four-year, $18 million contract expires on July 1, making him an unrestricted free agent one month after his 30th birthday.
That's a nice benefit to allowing his contract to lapse, and Harpring intends to take advantage of it.
"I'm looking forward to it. I've never been a complete free agent," the Jazz forward said on the eve of his trip home. "It gives me the [right] to make a decision."
