(Portland, OR) -- Sentencing is scheduled next week for a former Portland Trail Blazer convicted of rape. A jury found Ben McLemore guilty of first-degree rape yesterday following an eleven-day trial. The former NBA guard committed the assault during his time with the Trail Blazers in 2021. McLemore's defense team said he admitted to having sex but maintained it was consensual. The victim, a 21-year-old woman, says she was incapacitated due to heavy drinking and could not consent.
