Back in 2007, John Amaechi, who had been retired from the NBA for 4 years, publicly came out, becoming the first gay NBA Player to do so. We discuss how he grew up in England learning the game late in life, and how it brought him on a remarkable journey to Penn State (as they joined the Big 10), through the NBA, and life as a pyschologist and public speaker now.
