Bucks guard OJ Mayo has been awful in Milwaukee this season, this after inking a three-year $24 million deal. Putting up just 11.8 points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists (all well below career averages), Mayo has also been out of shape due to illness and injuries. According to former teammate Rudy Gay, Mayo has also been gorging on too much delicious and fatty Wisconsin food. Per Cowbell Kingdom:
”He’s had a bad season, but he’s still a good player. He’s a little overweight, hasn’t played a lot this season, but he’s still O.J. Mayo in there and I’ve seen him do things like that all the time. So I wasn’t surprised at all. He can hit tough shots. He’s a ball player. He can do it. For whatever reason of how he turned out or whatever, gained a little weight, whatever, he’s still a good ball player.”
”Was I surprised to see it? Little bit. I haven’t seen him, but we talked a little bit. He said he was hurt, and I guess when you’re hurt in Wisconsin, you eat.”
