Overview
- A Clackamas County jury found McLemore guilty on one count of first-degree rape, one count of first-degree unlawful sexual penetration and one count of second-degree sexual abuse after an 11-day trial.
- The charges stem from an October 2021 party at teammate Robert Covington’s Lake Oswego home, where prosecutors say the victim was too intoxicated to consent.
- The survivor testified that she felt physically locked and believed playing dead might stop the assault.
- McLemore, who last played in the NBA in 2022, was arrested by U.S. Marshals at Portland Airport after stints playing in China, Greece and Spain.
- Under Oregon law, he faces at least eight years in prison when he is sentenced on July 9.
