Shawn Kemp Rehabilitation Project: No Player Left Behind

Shawn Kemp, a long time humanitarian, has signed on to play with the Oklahoma Storm of the USBL, a team he also partly owns. Those close to Kemp report that this is just the first stage in an effort to help himself and many former Jail Blazers return to the NBA limelight. As owner, Kemp can bypass inconveniences like "drug tests" or "conduct detrimental to the team" on his comeback tour.

Using his Blazer $20 million buyout from his previous contract, The Snow Man has managed to convince other unfairly persecuted stars, including Blazer alums JR Rider, Dontonio Wingfield, and James "Hollywood" Robinson, to join the Storm. No word yet on Roy Tarpley, and Vernon Maxwell has certain...issues to deal with first.

Support Good Guy Kemp in his charitable endeavor - what other poor victims of the NBA lifestyle could he turn around??
