Police rushed to Isiah Thomas' upstate New York home early Friday morning, a spokesman from the Harrison Police Department confirmed to Usmagazine.com.

"An ambulance was called to his residence around midnight, and a party was transported to White Plains Hospital," the police spokesman told Us. "It was a party from his residence. It was ruled an overdose."

The police would not confirm to Us if the overdose involved drugs or alcohol, or if it was a suicide attempt.

Police sources told CBS' New York City affiliate that Thomas overdosed on sleeping pills.

Thomas was fired as the New York Knicks' head coach on April 18.

A spokesperson for the team told CBS that Thomas is fine.

Just an FYI - I'm from a Detroit suburb (where Thomas became famous) and our local news already reported like 2 hours ago that they police confirmed the body rushed to the hospital was NOT his.

Man how sad!

Not surprising considering:

he's ruined an entire league(the cba), 2 teams(pacers and knicks) and the city of his birth hates him (chicago)

Sad though
