Just days ago there were rumors suggesting Milwaukee Bucks forward Larry Sanders wanted to quit the NBA. He was quick to say those rumors were just that, though perhaps there was more to the situation than met the eye. That’s because the talented though troubled Sanders has been suspended by the NBA for drug use.
If this sounds familiar with Larry Sanders, that’s because it is as this is his second drug related suspension.
RT @NBAPR: MIL’s Larry Sanders suspended without pay for a minimum of ten games for violating the terms of the NBA/NBPA Anti-Drug Program.

When motivated and healthy, Larry Sanders has proven himself to be a very worthwhile player and somebody the Milwaukee Bucks hoped to build their franchise around. However given his off court woes, you have to wonder how much of a future he not only has with the Bucks but if his NBA career is quickly falling apart.
So many times we’ve seen talents like Sanders throw away their career over addiction and you hope the same doesn’t happen to the Bucks’ big man, though he’s certainly not taking the correct path in regards to how his career will play out.
This is likely his last chance, so he better get with the NBA’s program – literally.
