The press in Croatia reported that Dino Rađa, known in English as Dino Radja is gay. For those that do not know or remember Dino Radja was a superstar in Europe.
He joined the NBA where he played for the Boston Celtics in the 1990s era. He was a 6-11 big man and was quite a good player. He was a very good NBA player but he started to get some health problems. He was traded to the Philadelphia 76ers and he failed his physical.
I don't remember what was wrong with him but it was something that meant he couldn't get a contract or play with an NBA team because he could not pass a physical. So he left the NBA after the trade fell apart and went back to Europe and continued to have a great career there before retiring.
According to Croatian press it is out that he is gay and played in the NBA like John Amaechi afraid to announce it. Also supposedly like Amaechi it is rumored he claims there were "many gay NBA players" also afraid to come out of the closet................
Hmm.......now we have two ex players making this claim.

Re: Dino Radja (ex Boston) is gay???
I vividly remember Dino.....His name actually comes up from time to time when me and my friends talk about 90s basketball....He was an ok player, but was so goofy and his name is Dino, so he was easy to make fun of.

Re: Dino Radja (ex Boston) is gay???
Dino was alright. He was a 16-8 player...nothing great but a decent enuogh SAR, D.Gooden, LeMarcus Aldridge (sorry) type.
He had bad injuries, playing a total of 75 games in his last 2 seasons forcing retirement.

I think he is John Amaechi's favorite player in the NBA.

Mobley and Jefferson seem gay but I doubt they'll come out until they are retired if they really are gay.

He hides it so well with that shirt and hair. How could anyone have known?

Re: Dino Radja (ex Boston) is gay???
I don't want to know if any NBA player is gay.
It would ruin everything. AND YES, I am biased.

Very homophobic is what you meant to say... You're also probably a suppressed homosexual. Originally Posted by worldbefree

Re: Dino Radja (ex Boston) is gay???
I mean really what makes a former NBA player being gay news.
Am I supposed to believe there should be an asterisk next to his stats because he was taking daily injections of jizz in his ass during his few seasons in the NBA.
Unless the jizz was giving him a competitive advantage over other NBA players

As far as Jefferson well there have been various rumors about him and his voice doesn't help at all and neither did the advice he gave to any gay athlete which seemed very well thought out. RJ may be straight and I'd say 50/50. I havent' heard him admit it or deny it and as long as he helps the Nets I don't care honestly.

Wait, is this a fact or just a rumor (like the old ones about Isiah, Magic or Pippen being bi's)? A few hours ago, I read this as a rumor and that Rađa didn't admit anything.

I dont really understand what being on the down-low means. Originally Posted by DieHardBullsFan

Seriously,it is not uncommon for a normally strait person to think about having sex with a man but they think something is wrong with them because they're taught throughout childhood not to be gay and that gay is wrong.Thats why there are so many confused individuals out there unsure about their sexuality,like GOBB.
