Former Warriors star Monta Ellis will sit out the first five games next season after he violated the league’s anti-drug program.
Ellis, who just finished his second year with the Indiana Pacers, likely twas suspended for testing positive for marijuana use. The NBA only hands out five-game suspensions when a player is caught using marijuana for a third time.
“Monta’s suspension is a very serious matter to our franchise and will be dealt with accordingly,” Indiana Pacers GM Kevin Pritchard, himself a former Warriors draft pick, said in a statement.
