Jason Collins has a place in LGBTQ history. A tall one.
The NBA center came out as gay in 2013, which made him not just the first openly gay player in the NBA, but the first openly gay fella playing in a major American team sport.
Now 47, Collins recently revealed that he has Stage 4 brain cancer. So hold a good thought for this trailblazer. Who, as it happens, was a Hawk, a Wizard, a Celtic . . . but never a Trail Blazer.
