“I think everybody was surprised, because I’ve been around Bobby, and I know he’s not a guy that ever takes any illegal substance,” said Giannis Antetokounmpo. “Had the opportunity to talk with the team and coaching staff, and they explained to me – and also Bobby, that it was an honest mistake. “Sometimes you’re in that position. You have people around you that you trust blindly, and they might want the best for you, but they can make a mistake. So he made a mistake, and I think he understands that. And I believe, because I know Bobby, that he feels, probably that he’s letting the team down. And, he probably, maybe, he might be embarrassed.”

“Because at the end of the day, there’s a banned list, which gets updated every single year,” said Antetokounmpo. “And things that (weren’t) banned last year are banned this year. So you just got to be very, very aware of things that you consume. We are professional athletes, so we have to take that serious. “We love Bobby. Can’t wait for him to come back with the team and get the ball rolling again.”
