Well it's not getting any better for O.J. Mayo. The league office slapped him with a 10 game suspension for the use of a banned substance and is also a violation of the player unions anti-drug program.
Mayo tested positive for dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA). Mayo says he took an OTC supplement that he was unaware of it being banned by the league and players union. In a statement he released through the team Mayo said...
"It was an honest mistake, but I take full responsibility for my actions," Mayo said in the statement released by the team. "I apologize to my fans, teammates and the Grizzlies organization for regrettably not doing the necessary research about what supplements I can put in my body."
Way to man up OJ so long as this ish doesn't come up again, you already have enough going on. No comment on Mayo if the drug was taken to help his swollen face. Mayo will still be allowed to practice with the Grizz but will not return to game action until February 15th.
