Former Iowa basketball player and retired NBA veteran Brad Lohaus pleaded not guilty to a domestic assault charge Tuesday in Polk County.

Lohaus, 40, was charged with simple domestic assault upon McKinsey S. Gonder. The incident allegedly occurred during the early morning hours of July 14 at the Courtyard Inn in Clive.

A trail date has been set for October.

Lohaus met the requirements to be charged under Iowa law because he and Gonder have a child together.

Gonder, 23, reportedly received minor injuries to her lip and head, but medical treatment was not required.

Meanwhile, Lohaus also faces felony second-degree theft charge for allegedly stealing just less than $2,000 from fraudulent e-bay auctions.

Johnson County court records show there are 12 witnesses in the theft case.

His trial for the theft charge is schedule to begin Monday. However, Lohaus' lawyer, Leon Spies, said the trial could be delayed because a different prosecutor is now handling the case.

Lohaus, who couldn't be reached for comment, played at Iowa from 1982-87.

He then played in the NBA for more than a decade and with eight different teams before retiring in the late 1990s.

He has lived in Iowa City since retiring from the NBA. He co-owned the Airliner restaurant from 1993 to 2001.

He was a pretty good 3 point shooter for someone 7-1. I enoyed his goofy style when he played for us.
