The 19-year-old son of Knicks head coach Isiah Thomas has been busted for underage drinking after getting punched out in an Indiana bar, police said Thursday, according to a report in the New York Daily News. The report said. Joshua Thomas, a student at the University of Indiana, was arrested early Tuesday after he went to a Bloomington hospital to be treated for a swollen eye, a police source said. Thomas allegedly became belligerent when hospital staff called police, who began questioning him about the injury he received while allegedly drinking in an off-campus bar with fake identification. Joshua Thomas, a student at the University of Indiana, was arrested early Tuesday after he went to a Bloomington hospital to be treated for a swollen eye, a police source said. Thomas allegedly became belligerent when hospital staff called police, who began questioning him about the injury he received while allegedly drinking in an off-campus bar with fake identification. "This is b------t," Thomas allegedly screamed at a police officer. According to a police report, Thomas appeared to be "extremely intoxicated with bloodshot eyes [and] slurred speech." When he refused orders to calm down, Thomas was arrested on misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct, illegal consumption of alcohol and being a minor in a tavern. He was released from the Monroe County Jail on $500 bail. On the way to jail, Thomas vomited and passed out in the police car, according to the report. The incident began about 11 p.m. Monday when Thomas was drinking at the Kilroy's on Kirkwood bar in downtown Bloomington, police said. Thomas told cops he was at the bar when an unidentified man asked him if he was gay, the report says. When Thomas answered "no," the man hit him in the eye with either his fist or a beer bottle, witnesses told police. Bar bouncers quickly separated the men and threw out the attacker, police said. As of yesterday, police had not been able to identify the attacker. Joshua Thomas could not be reached for comment last night. He is a freshman at the university, where his famous father was a star player on the Hoosiers' 1981 NCAA championship basketball team. The teen is also a record producer and a deejay, who goes by "DJ Zeke," a reference to his father's nickname. He has performed in several nightclubs in Manhattan and in White Plains.

JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.
