Larry Sanders plans on pursuing a return to the NBA once his off-court pursuits stabilize.

"Once my art, music and passions off the court feel stable, I will look into coming back," Sanders told The Vertical. "I still love basketball. I want stability around me, and part of my mindset to leave was not to put all my eggs in one basket.

“I feel highly valuable on any team. There aren't a lot of people who can bring my game to a team. I still play basketball all the time, staying in shape. I will need to make sure the situation is right for me.”

Sanders receives $1.86 million per year until 2022 through his buyout with the Milwaukee Bucks.

Sanders was suspended twice for violating the NBA's anti-drug program and went on a personal leave of absence before a buyout last February.

Sanders was one of the NBA's best young rim protectors.

For now, Sanders says there is no timetable toward a return. He now resides in Los Angeles where he releases music, including a recent single called “Black Mercedes.”
