Former Seattle SuperSonics forward Shawn Kemp was charged on Friday with marijuana possession.
King County prosecutors said Kemp and Gavin Lamar Jones were arrested about 1 a.m. on April 4 in the Seattle suburb of Shoreline, after a county sheriff's deputy noticed a large truck belonging to Kemp sitting behind a closed car wash.
According to court papers, when the deputy approached the truck, the driver's door was open and a strong smell of marijuana was coming from inside the vehicle. Kemp initially said the pair had smoked marijuana earlier and there was none in the vehicle, but later told the deputy there was ``a bag full,'' in the truck.

A source very close to LeBron James has told the Beacon Journal that the young superstar would prefer Nate McMillan to become the next head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers.
McMillan is coaching without a contract for next season in Seattle and so Dan Gilbert will be able to court the coach this summer.
McMillan's agent has been working for an extension and with this report, his client's negotiating power will surely rise.
