New York Knicks reserve center Eddy Curry was slapped with a sex-harassment suit Monday by his former driver, who claims the former Bull tried to solicit sex from him, the New York Post reported.
Court papers claim Curry, a married father of three, repeatedly approached chauffeur David Kuchinsky ''in the nude.''
Curry also made Kuchinsky perform ''humiliating tasks outside the scope of his employment, such as cleaning up and removing dirty towels [Curry had ejaculated into] so that his wife would not see them,'' the suit says.
Kuchinsky, who is straight and Jewish, also alleges racial discrimination, saying that Curry hurled slurs at him.
Kuchinsky worked for Curry from October 2005 through October 2008, said he was initially hired as an around-the-clock chauffeur for Curry and his family at their Burr Ridge home, the Post reported.
The Knicks scratched Curry from the lineup before the Knicks' 101-95 win over the host New Orleans Hornets on Monday.
Team officials said Curry, who missed the Knicks' previous game on Saturday night in Houston with a sore right knee, now has a sore left knee.
