New York Knicks forward Cleanthony Early was shot in the right knee in a coordinated early-morning attack involving masked gunmen after leaving a Queens strip club, police sources told the Daily News.
Early, 24, was surrounded by four to six men, two of them with guns, and robbed of his items and jewelry — including a gold necklace and gold caps on his teeth, sources said.
The shooting happened at 4:15 a.m., after Early left CityScapes gentlemen's club on 58th Street in Maspeth Queens. He was with his girlfriend when he left the club, sources said.
The couple was in an Uber cab, about a mile away from the club, when three cars boxed in the vehicle, sources said.
The men approached — two of them with guns, one wearing a ski mask — and pulled Early from the back seat, holding him up with semi-automatic pistols.
"Give me everything you got," the men told Early, according to police sources.
Early handed over his cash, gold caps on his teeth, and two gold chains, as well as his iPhone 6, sources said, before shooting Early in the right knee. The Uber driver was also robbed, and the men took his ID.
Early was taken to Elmhurst Hospital in stable condition, and was later being transported to another hospital. His injury does not appear to be life-threatening.
The Knicks released a statement acknowledging the shooting.
"We are aware of what occurred with Cleanthony Early this morning and are relieved that he is not in a life-threatening situation," the team said. "We will not comment any further until we receive more information."

Shooting him in the knee after the fact has the be the most haterest ? I've heard all year. Just straight grimy.

Since he is a basketball player it will be a high end search for these guys. If these are black folk then they are truly white men in their heart and mind.
