A New York City woman has filed a lawsuit against the Knicks' Kyle O'Quinn, and the forward is being investigated by police, according to the New York Daily News.
Shakaira Elaine Elie, 22, says in a suit filed in Brooklyn Supreme Court that O'Quinn and a woman, who's believed to be his girlfriend, attacked her at a Manhattan bar on May 22. After finding out O'Quinn's identity, she reported the incident to the NYPD. The police investigation continues, Elie's attorney told the Daily News.
O'Quinn was acquired by the Knicks from the Orlando Magic last summer. The Queens native played in 65 games this past season, averaging 4.8 points and 3.8 rebounds per game.
