Toronto Raptors guard Jalen Harris has been “dismissed and disqualified” from the NBA for violating the terms of the NBA/NBPA anti-drug program.
The NBA made the announcement on Thursday.
Under the anti-drug program, Harris, as a first-year player, is eligible to apply for reinstatement in one year.
It is unknown which drug Harris tested positive for.
The Raptors selected the 22-year-old Harris in the second round, 59th overall, in the 2020 NBA Draft.
He made 13 regular-season appearances with Toronto as a rookie in 2020-21, averaging 7.4 points, 1.4 rebounds and 1.3 assists.
Harris also played seven regular-season games with Toronto’s G League affiliate, Raptors 905, and put up 17.6 points, 4.1 rebounds and 2.3 assists per outing.
