Player Profiles: The Legendary, The Past & The Present

Shawn Kemp

Without playing even one college basketball game, Shawn “The Reign Man” Kemp entered the NBA draft at the tender age of nineteen, the youngest player in the league at the time. Kemp dominated the paint as a power forward for the better part of the 1990’s with the Seattle Super Sonics, and played in five NBA All Star games from 1993-1998. The Reign Man was best known for his powerful dunks and crashing the boards.

During Kemp’s NBA career, Reebok graced him with some pretty notable sneakers. Kemp snagged rebounds and threw down memorable dunks wearing the Reebok Shroud, After Shock, Kamikaze, and most notable Kamikaze II. Kemp was also lucky enough to receive a signature shoe line for Reebok that included the Reignman, Reignman II, and Reignman III.

    Being in the City of Rain I gotta show love to my guy Shawn Kemp. Long live the Sonics… anyways Charles killed these guys on the shoe game. KG gets sloppy 2nds. I’d kill for a pair of retro Kemps tho. The Kamikazis are classics in the town!
