http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nbc-ya...cid.yahoo.html
The response to Collins’ decision has been overwhelmingly positive, but the concept of playing with a gay player is still a major talking point across the world of sports. Former NBA star Charles Barkley joined The Dan Patrick Show and talked about Collins’ decision to come out, telling Patrick about his experiences with gay players in the locker room.
During the interview, Barkley stated that everyone who has played in the NBA has had a gay teammate at some point.

That's not a stretch of the imagination. Estimates say that somewhere between 7% and 10% of the population is gay, so logically if you are on a team of 13 people then at least 1 and possibly 2 of them are gay.
