Isiah Thomas Hospitalized

NBC news reports that Isiah Thomas, the former New York Knicks head coach, was rushed to the hospital Friday morning due to an apparent overdose on sleeping pills.

Thomas had reportedly consumed approximately 10 Lunesta pills, a prescription sleep aid, according to the New York Daily News.

Harrison Police Chief David Hall refused to identify the man."We’re classifying it as an accidental overdose of prescription sleeping pills. He was unconscious, but breathing on his own."

The patient was taken to White Plains Hospital where his stomach was pumped.
