    What exactly happened to Shawn Kemp?

    I'm just wondering about what happened to him? In the 99-00 season he averaged 17.8 ppg with Cleveland. The following season his average dropped to 6.8 with Portland and never recovered again.
    What exactly happened? I haven't gotten any clear answers. I know he put on some weight, but not under what circumstances.

    Too much of the 3 W's: women, weight, and weed.

        The last team he played for was the Orlando Magic in 2002.

        He currently owns a USBL team in Alabama and still holds clinics for kids on basketball.

            He started to gain weight and when he got traded to Portland he didn't get much playing time. He was into cocaine it seemed like, and his conditioning went to hell. That's on top of his 'kid' problems.

                I believe that the team is in Mississippi. I don't think we have any USBL teams here in Alabama.

                    Yeah, doesn't he have about 21 kids?

                            He was a coke head and gained like 70 pounds
                            As Shaquille O'Neal left the Suns practice court, he yelled out, "Alvin's the coach. We must be the Clippers. And I must be Olowokandi. Nooooo!"
