From wiki:
On January 25, 2006, Andersen was disqualified from the NBA for violating the league’s anti-drug policy by testing positive for a banned substance. Andersen’s suspension fell under the league’s category of “drugs of abuse,” violation of which is possible grounds for expulsion from the NBA under the league’s collective bargaining agreement. Andersen attempted to appeal the ruling through arbitration, but the arbitrator ruled to uphold his dismissal in March 2006. He was eligible for reinstatement effective January 25, 2008.
On March 4, 2008, the NBA and NBA Players Association granted Andersen’s request to be reinstated as an NBA player. The reinstatement was effective immediately, and the rights to his services belonged to his former team, the New Orleans Hornets, who signed him to a contract on March 5, 2008.
