Is Larry Sanders the league's biggest bitch?

Larry Sanders finalizes buyout with Bucks, has no immediate plans to return to NBA
Milwaukee Bucks center Larry Sanders has finalized a buyout agreement on the remaining three-plus years of his contract, clearing the way for him to leave the NBA and work on the personal issues that derailed his career, league sources told Yahoo Sports.

As part of the buyout, Sanders will leave with approximately half of the $44 million extension he signed in 2014, a league source told Yahoo Sports.

Sanders has had repeated violations of the NBA's anti-drug policy and hasn't shown an inclination to immediately return to the league. Sanders could become a reclamation project for an NBA team next season, but his desire to play and ability to meet league requirements needs improving.

This guy is going to take his $20 million and smoke it away in a few years.

He has serious mental issues, its not just about weed

[kNIOKAS]

There are plenty of fit candidates to that position. What are the personal problems cited? Any of us could have somehing happen to him where playing in the NBA is no longer the necessity.

Kevin Durant might have something to say about that.

He did what he needed to in order to be rich. Still a success story in my book.

Yeah, now that one is sad. I'm sure he didn't want that to end his career, so it must have been some crippling fear.

Didn't know the Kings picked up White for two ten day contracts.

I wonder how good this guy even is. I remember reading during and after the draft about how he was a lottery pick without his personal issues. Then I look at his dleague stats (where any capable player puts up HUGE numbers) and they are shit.

11.4/5.7/3.3 on .444 in 16 games 2 years ago.
8.8/4.3/2.8 on .367 in 4 games last year.

All that trouble for a guy who can't even do shit in the dleague? Wonder what he's doing now.

Whitr is out of shape and I don't think he wants to play. I saw him driving around glen mills/west Chester PA area in an Audi A8. He's a moron.

Royce White, That guy was a nutjob for sure

[RoseCity07]

One of the dumbest people on the planet. Leaving 20 million on the table because he wants to be a professional drug addict. I hope he blows all his money.

There you go. Read then come back here and cringe at your post.

anxiety is a real problem.

[DMV2]

As a player to his organization and a teammate to his fellow players, he's definitely a bitch.

But I wouldn't attack him as a person or his personal struggles because mental issues are a serious concern.
