BREAKING: Knicks Player Shot Outside Strip Club

Knicks forward Cleanthony Early was shot outside a New York strip club on Wednesday morning following the team’s win over the Pistons on Tuesday night. Early, 24, is hospitalized in stable condition.

Early was reportedly in an Uber cab leaving the club when two vehicles boxed his car in and six men got out, demanding Early’s jewelry and, after he handed two gold chains over, shooting him in the right knee, which Early had surgery on last season.

Former Knick Chris Copeland was stabbed outside an NYC club in April. Early’s teammate Derrick Williams was reportedly robbed of $750,000 in jewelry earlier this month.

 UPDATE: Early was released from the emergency unit and avoided major structural damage to his knee.

JR Smith accused of choking teen after Knicks taunt

JR Smith might be in hot water for the 1000th time.

Reports leaked Friday that Smith had been accused of choking a 19 year-old male at a pizza shop in New York. According to the NY Daily News and NY Post, Smith declined the teen’s request for a photo, and was told, “That’s why New York kicked you out!” provoking the often-emotional Smith to attack the teen.

Smith was in New York to play his former team, the Knicks. The incident reportedly took place at 4 AM on November 13.

Smith has denied the incident, as has his attorney.

This definitely bears watching, as Smith is certainly on thin ice with the league office and his 30 potential NBA employers.

The Knicks beat the Lakers 99-95 on Sunday, behind 24 points from Carmelo Anthony.

After the game, Melo called out a Lakers fan who had been giving him trouble:

Carmelo also called on Knicks fans to be more vocal after Lakers fans invaded the Garden in full force for Sunday’s game.

“I’ve never seen that on my home court where an opposing fan is heckling me. Where are my fans at? We need the Knicks fans to step up there.”
