Knicks coach/president Isiah Thomas will spend his summer preparing for the NBA draft, free agency - and trial.

A trial date of Sept. 10, in U.S. District Court in Manhattan, has been set for former Knicks marketing chief Anucha Browne-Sanders' sexual-harassment suit versus Thomas.

Legal sources predict the trial to last two weeks, allowing Thomas to be ready for Knicks' training camp Oct. 1 in Charleston, S.C. Sources deny settlement talks took place recently.

"There's going to be a trial," one legal source said. Browne-Sanders declined comment.
