In the NBA season 2022-23 Milwaukee Bucks found himself in need of a central depth after their accident with a former three-time defense star of All-NBA, Serge Ibak, who was dissatisfied with his play or lack of it. To replace it in his composition after the four -time trade hit, which brought Jae Crowder to Milwaukee, Bucks signed the center Meyers Leonard In motion, which was highly questioned by many fans.
At the time of signing, Leonard has not played in the NBA game since 2020. After joining Milwaukee, Leonard appeared in nine matches, on average 4.8 points and 3.8 rebounds in 12.7 minutes per match.
Milwaukee Bucks fans were not ecstatic when they signed Meyers Leonard
Leonard played in Miami Heat in the NBA 2020-21 season, when he suffered a shoulder injury, which required surgery. This year he played in just three matches, on average 3.3 points and 2.3 rebounds.
But the pity was not the only thing that stopped him from seeing the court. During rehabilitation, Leonard sent streamly playing video games on Twitch, a popular streaming application. Players players can not only visually send a stream what they play, but can also employ headphones and microphones for oral interaction with viewers.
During one such stream, Leonard used an anti -Semitic suspension. The film he does has become viral online and led to heat suspension for an indefinite period.
Just over a week later, Miami exchanged him for Oklahoma City Thunder, who announced that he was not going to allow Leonard to join his team. He was included in trade in a salary filler. The thunder released him eight days later.
Leonard did not play at all in the 2021-22 season after it was found that he had nerve damage in his right leg. Of course, there was not a single NBA team that signed it.
Only when Milwaukee signed it in February 2023, did he return to court. However, his return was brief -lived. Bucks did not sign it again after the season, just like no other team.

Leonard did not play in the NBA or any other professional league, in general in 2023–24, because no team wanted him. He again appeared before the 2024-25 season, but he could hope that the date of NBA trading and two-way players lose their spots, increasing his chances of finding a job.
They didn’t do it.
Due to any reported interests on the part of any teams, NBA Leonard announced his retirement:
