MSG Suit Settled

WNYC News | Jul 12, 2010

New York, NY —

Madison Square Garden and New York Knicks coach Isiah Thomas have settled the sexual harassment case brought by a former team executive. Anucha Browne Sanders settled for $11.5 million. That's just $100,000 less than a jury awarded her.

In a statement, Browne Sanders said she was "extremely pleased" and that "justice has been done." Isiah Thomas still says he's completely innocent and the settlement doesn't change that.
