Knicks forward Cleanthony Early suffered a gunshot wound to his leg early Wednesday morning just hours after New York’s victory over Detroit, according to published reports.
The New York Daily News, citing police sources, said Early was shot leaving a Queens strip club by “four to six people wearing ski masks” in three separate vehicles that boxed in Early's Uber cab roughly a mile from the club. According to the New York Daily News, the masked men robbed Early of his jewelry and gold caps on his teeth.
