The NBA is the toughest league in the world for those who cross the line. Meyers Leonard knows this well. While playing an online game of World War II, he uttered an anti-Semitic slur, leading to the doors of the premier league in the world being shut to him. Ja Morant and Kyrie Irving are very talented and can afford to play with guns or watch anti-Semitic movies. Not so for Leonard.
He exited the best basketball league in the world quietly because he was a role player. After his suspension for that private comment made while gaming, he only landed a brief contract that he didn't know how to capitalize on, ultimately walking away. Now, he's back in the limelight thanks to his new identity as an artist. He just released his debut single as a Country singer. Quite the journey for the guy. Let's see if he fares better in music than he did in basketball.
