Former Milwaukee Bucks center Larry Sanders, who walked away from the NBA in December 2014 to deal with mental health issues, is ready to return, and at least two teams are interested in the former first-round pick.
Per Ben Mehic of wizofawes.com, Sanders worked out for the Boston Celtics on Friday, and he’ll be in Washington to work out for the Wizards next week.

Sanders announced on Twitter Thursday that after a two-year absence he is ready to return to the floor.

Sanders averaged 6.5 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game in five seasons for the Bucks, and he averaged nearly a double-double (9.8 points, 9.5 rebounds) with almost three blocks per game during his best season in 2012-13.
Both the Celtics and the Wizards could use some help on the glass this season, so it’s no surprise that they are kicking the tires on Sanders.
