The fallout from the Dwight Howard situation even snared mild-mannered Lakers reserve Jodie Meeks.

Numerous websites claimed that Meeks posted a photo on Instagram of Howard Photoshopped as a female basketball player, complete with pigtails, makeup and a WNBA jersey of the Orlando Magic.

One problem, though. Meeks said via Twitter that he doesn’t have an Instagram account.

Woww! I don’t even have an instagram. Whoever that is needs to stop it!! #peoplethesedays— Jodie Meeks (@Jmeeks20) July 6, 2013

He then added what we all know.

Meeks was Howard’s best friend on the Lakers.
