| By The Associated Press February 07, 2007 Former Knicks player John Amaechi is gay, and now the first NBA player to appear out publicly is ready to communicate about it. Amaechi, a center who spent five seasons with four teams, is scheduled to appear on ESPN's Outside the Lines on Sunday, and his autobiography "Man in the Middle," will be released Feb. 14.

"We have a very diverse league. The question at the NBA is always 'have you got game?' That's it, end of inquiry," he said.
