Following his second suspension for marijuana use, Sanders' former team, the Milwaukee Bucks, announced they were buying out the remainder of his contract on Feb. 21, 2015.
He's receiving $1.8 million per year until 2022 as a result of the Bucks using the stretch provision on his contract.
Sanders revealed in a piece for The Players' Tribune that he was stepping away from the game to deal with mental health concerns, including anxiety and depression.
At his peak, Sanders was an elite rim protector who ranked near the top of the league in blocks per game. His strongest season came in 2012-13, when he averaged a near double-double of 9.8 points and 9.5 rebounds on 50.6 percent shooting, along with 2.8 rejections.
