PHOENIX (Reuters) - Former Phoenix Suns basketball player Rex Chapman was sentenced on Friday to 18 months of supervised probation for shoplifting more than $15,000 in merchandise from an Apple store in Arizona, court officials said.
Chapman, who starred at the University of Kentucky before playing guard for several NBA teams, also was sentenced to perform 750 hours of community service under a plea deal in Maricopa County Superior Court in Phoenix.
The 48-year-old already has completed the court-ordered community service, a court spokeswoman said.
