Sebastian Telfair, a former NBA point guard whose playing career ended in China in 2014, received a 3 1/2-year prison sentence for illegal gun possession, Brooklyn, N.Y., district attorney Eric Gonzalez announced Monday.
Telfair, a former first-round draft pick who played 10 seasons in the NBA, was arrested in January 2017 and convicted in April 2019 of one count of second-degree criminal possession of a weapon. Firearms and marijuana were recovered by police from Telfair's vehicle during a traffic stop.
