Former NBA star Shawn Kemp was sentenced to 30 days of electronic home monitoring following his May arrest for second-degree assault, according to The Seattle Times. Notably, the sentence allows Kemp to avoid jail time after Pierce County Superior Court Judge Michael Schwartz found that circumstances surrounding Kemp's case warranted a downward sentence.

A Pierce County judge declined to order any jail time for Shawn Kemp on Friday after the former NBA Seattle Supersonics star pleaded guilty to firing upon a stolen car outside the Tacoma Mall occupied by men who had broken into his truck.
