Larry Sanders Proposed To Girlfriend During Big 3 Game
Former Milwaukee Bucks center Larry Sanders was a shot blocking machine before his career went on a downward spiral in 2015. Drug use, depression, and mood disorders forced the 6’11” big man to check into a hospital program, lose his love for the game, and step away from the NBA. He was suspended twice for violating the NBA’s drug-usage protocol within a year span. Sanders came back for a brief stint with the Cavaliers in 2017, but called it on his professional career after five games.
Sanders thankfully has overcome his issues and is back on track. He now plays in the Big 3 and had a very special highlight on opening week.
During half-time, Sanders proposed to his longtime girlfriend. She said yes!
Congrats, Larry!
