Miles Fails Drug Test, Gets 10-Game Suspension

Former Blazers' forward Darius Miles has been suspended for ten games by the NBA after violating the league's anti-drug program, according to The Oregonian.

It is not known what he tested positive for, but the ten-game suspension is mandatory after testing positive for performance-enhancing drugs or a fourth positive test for marijuana.

Miles hasn't played in the NBA since 2006, and Portland waived him in April as suspensions and right knee issues have derailed his career.
