Magic’s Hedo Turkoglu suspended 20 games for positive steroid test | ProBasketballTalk
The Orlando Magic’s Hedo Turkoglu has been suspended 20 games by the league for testing positive for methenolone, the league announced. Methenolone is an anabolic steroid.
Turkoglu’s suspension starts Wednesday night and he can return March 27 (vs. Bobcats).
Turkoglu released a statement through the Magic saying this was an accident.
“While I was back home in Turkey this past summer, I was given a medication by my trainer to help recover more quickly from a shoulder injury. I didn’t know that this was a banned substance and didn’t check before taking it. I take full responsibility for anything that goes into my body. This was a complete error in judgment on my part and I apologize to the Orlando Magic organization, the league, my teammates, and the Magic fans. I know I have let down a lot of people and I am truly sorry for my mistake.”
