Crowder has also played for the Dallas Mavericks, Boston Celtics, Cleveland Cavaliers, Utah Jazz, Memphis Grizzlies, Miami Heat and Phoenix Suns during his 12-year NBA career.

He quit on PHX because he didn't want a bench role... two years later he's working out for teams, hoping for a bench role.

Working out for teams? I would've thought contenders would be lining up to sign him. Is there some off court bullcrap idk about?

He's a bad apple.

Lol, good point!

He's declining kinda quickly on a yearly basis... he's a lot different now compared to the player he was 3 seasons ago. Not sure how much he has left in the tank. Could be a valuable vet with playoff experience to have as a 3rd stringer though!

I wouldn't want a bench role for a team with NO sense of direction and a coach who doesn't know how to coach.

I don't think that applies in either case.
