76ers Superstar Paul George Offers Explanation for Banned Substance Suspension
76ers forward Paul George has finally commented on the 25-game suspension he received after failing a drug test due to taking a banned substance.
Following his suspension earlier this year, the NBA veteran held a press conference where he addressed the situation. He explained that his decision to take a banned substance was motivated by a desire to recover from a knee injury sustained in the offseason and to cope with the resulting mental health challenges.
“At the moment, I didn’t know the repercussions,” he explained.
