Does anyone really care? He's just another person. Him coming out to me is no different than any man coming out. I don't care and I don't think that anyone should. I don't even know why he mentioned it.
Plus, he's not even that great of a player so a week from now everyone will have forgotten about this.

i was preety shocked, but it doesen't matter because he was not even a great player, he averaged about 6.2 points per game, if lebron james announces that, then every basketball fan will get a big shock. like one of your answerers said, they are going to forget about it in a week, he really didn't need to give an interview about it

I'm not sure what the big deal is. I like sports players for their ability to play and for being a good person... who they go to bed with (unless it is non-consensual) does not matter at all to me.
