Former North College Hill High School standout O.J. Mayo - suspended in 2016 for two years by the NBA for violating the league's anti-drug program - is expected to play next in Russia, according to an announcement via Twitter from UNICS Kazan.

Mayo, 33, signed in 2018 to play in Puerto Rico. He has since played in Taiwan and China.
