Zach Randolph and the Kings can, well, exhale at least through this heat wave.
Opinion
The veteran power forward – arrested in Los Angeles on Aug. 9 on suspicion of possessing marijuana with intent to sell, a felony – has instead been charged with two misdemeanors.
Randolph, arraigned Thursday in Los Angeles, faces lesser charges of possessing more than one ounce of marijuana and resisting arrest, neither of which is likely to result in a jail sentence, according to legal sources.
The possession charge carries a possible penalty of up to six months in county jail, the resisting charge a year.
