Nets' Chandler gets 25-game PED suspension

The Nets' Wilson Chandler, who averaged 6.0 points and 4.2 rebounds for the 76ers and Clippers last season, has been suspended 25 games for violating the terms of the NBA/NBPA Anti-Drug Program.

Bobby Marks ESPN 

The 25-game suspension will cost Wilson Chandler $23,316 per game and a total of $582,898. The Brooklyn forward will start the regular season on the active list and moved to the suspension list after the 5th game (Nov. 1 vs. Houston) of the regular season. The Nets with 15 guaranteed contracts can add a 16th player after the game against the Rockets. Brooklyn plays the following night (Nov. 2) at Detroit. Chandler will be removed off the suspension list for the Dec. 15 game vs. Philadelphia. Chandler can participate during training camp and play in the Nets pre-season games.

Bobby Marks ESPN 

The three-year cap hit on the $52.5M Caris LeVert extension is $16.2M, $17.5M and $18.8M. The first-year salary in 2020-21 will rank no. 15 among all shooting guards. The $17.5M per year average ranks only behind Rudy Gobert ($22.5M) for a player who was selected in the 20's of the NBA Draft and signed a rookie extension. LeVert will become an unrestricted FA in 2023 when he is still in the prime of his career at 28-years old.
