Clint Capela: Celebs Rumors

Outsports.com, Chris chose to keep his identity anonymous “out of fear of online attacks from fans of the players or teams.”Chris was able to find 78 homophobic tweets from 40 players throughout the league — a full 32 of the players remain active, according to Outsports.com.The tweets run the gauntlet in terms of how explicitly homophobic they are. Some are as tame — and absurd — as Center for the Atlanta Hawks Clint Capela saying “no homo” after wishing a friend luck, while others feature explicitly homophobic slurs directed as insults.The majority of tweets were sent between 2009 and 2013, at a time when many of the players were still very young (some even still teenagers in high school), and attitudes around LGBTQ issues vastly different from now.But openly gay basketball player Derrick Gordon, who plays professionally in Germany, told Outsports.com that such statements shouldn’t be tolerated no matter when they were posted.“I don’t care how long ago it was, it shows the person’s character,” Gordon said.

The Athletic, “Trailing 98-96, the Bucks went on a 9-0 run to take the lead with under five minutes remaining, but the Hawks stormed back behind Young and John Collins (23 points, 15 rebounds). Clint Capela scored a put-back with 29.8 seconds left to give the Hawks a 112-111 lead they wouldn’t relinquish”.In the first quarter, the Bucks seemed to be giving Young his floater and taking everything else away.
