NBA players have committed some ridiculous offenses over the years, but the NBA didn't ban them for 2 years.

What drugs are we talking? Worse than heroin?

Bird man got suspended for 2 years for cocaine use.

Quote:
According to the league's collective bargaining agreement, a
player can only be disqualified for a fourth positive test for
performance-enhancing drugs, or a first positive test for "drugs
of abuse."

The drugs on that list are amphetamine and its analogs, which
include methamphetamine; cocaine; LSD; opiates, including heroin,
codeine and morphine; and PCP.

I stand corrected. Chris Andersen was suspended two years for heroin use. So it's a consistent ruling against Mayo.
