Jason Collins targeted
Posted by Unknown on Thursday, March 20, 2014 with No comments
Since returning to the NBA with the Brooklyn Nets after announcing that he was gay last April, Jason Collins has had a relatively quiet season but he has had detractors from within the league and recently shared one of those situations with the media. Not wanting to cause a stir, Collins left the player unnamed.
"One player, one knucklehead from another team," Collins said. "He's a knucklehead. So I just let it go. Again, that goes back to controlling what you can control. That's how I conduct myself - just being professional."
"As an individual, as a person, as a human being, you have a lot of different hats that you wear," he said. "Whether you're an athlete or a human being trying to empower and help others. I'm trying to, again, empower and help others any way that I can."
