That’s a screenshot from the movie ‘The Warriors’ which would seem to imply that he’s come to an agreement to join forces with Golden State.
After the Bucks bought out Sanders’ contract in February of 2015, he took to the Players’ Tribune to explain his absences during the season and why he felt the need to walk away from the game.
Sanders, 27, owns career averages of 6.5 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.8 blocks across five NBA seasons, all with the Milwaukee Bucks. The 15th overall pick in the 2010 NBA Draft, Sanders finished seventh in Defensive Player of the Year voting for the 2012-13 season.
