NBA free agents have been cashing in with huge contracts, but O.J. Mayo won’t earnĀ a piece of the pie.
The league announced Friday that Mayo has been “dismissed and disqualified” from the NBA after violating its anti-drug policy.
Mayo can apply for reinstatement in two years. The league didn’t disclose the specifics of what Mayo violated.
The 28-year-oldĀ was entering free agency after spending three seasons with the Milwaukee Bucks. He averaged 7.8 points in 26.6 minutes per game during his injury-shortenedĀ 2015-16 campaign.
