Raptors guard Jalen Harris banned from NBA for violating anti-drug rules

Raptors guard Jalen Harris has been banned, or disqualified, from the NBA for at least a year after violating the NBA-NBPA drug rules.

The league announced the ban Thursday but offered little in the way of details.

“The NBA, NBA teams, and the NBPA are prohibited from publicly disclosing information regarding the testing or treatment of any NBA player under the Anti-Drug Program, other than to announce a player’s suspension or dismissal from the league,” the league said in a news release.

The Raptors confirmed they had been informed of the suspension by the league.
