Former NBA forward Shawn Kemp scored 25 points during a 3-on-3 game at KeyArena on Friday and confirmed that he's going to play overseas, according to The Seattle Post Intelligencer.

He signed a contract with Premiata Montegranaro, in an attempt to extend his playing career.

"I rested for like four or five years; I never been hurt and I still like to play basketball," said Kemp, who last played in the NBA in 2003 with the Magic. "If I decide to come back and try to play in the NBA, I want to go over there and see how good I am. I don't want to come back to the NBA and sit on somebody's bench. I'm not doing that."
