MILWAUKEE (AP) — Meyers Leonard is grateful to be back in the NBA after signing a 10-day contract with the Milwaukee Bucks. Leonard said it felt “almost euphoric” to practice for the first time with his new team. Leonard hasn’t appeared in an NBA game since January 2021. He made an antisemitic comment two months later while playing a video game online that others watched on a livestream. Leonard said at the time he didn’t know the meaning of the word he’d said. Leonard has since spoken and worked with several Jewish groups and apologized numerous times.
