Milwaukee Bucks big man Larry Sanders missed Wednesday night’s game against the Cleveland Cavaliers, won by Milwaukee 109-104, with a thumb injury, officially, but he is reportedly under investigation for a bar fight. We don’t yet if Larry Sanders got hurt from the incident which reportedly occurred Saturday night, or if the thumb injury is not related at all to the incident.
The Milwaukee Bucks did release this extremely useful and helpful statement. The statement is very productive, detailed, enlightening, news-worthy and informative. Reading this prepared statement will give you tremendous insight into what really happened with Larry Sanders; and it’s so interesting and entertaining that simply looking at it will utterly enrich your life:
“We are aware of an incident from Saturday evening. The matter is under investigation and Larry Sanders is cooperating fully. At this time we will have no further comment.”
Larry Sanders is averaging 2.7 points and 3.7 rebounds per game this season, and earlier in the week told NBA.com’s Steve Aschburner that he wanted to play more crunch-time minutes.
Larry Sanders had a breakout year last season averaging 9.8 points, 9.5 rebounds and an NBA-leading 2.8 blocks per game.
