The full quote from French reporter Maxime Aubin: “Wemby’s too emotional.” “Wemby should stop crying.” “Wemby’s gay.” Can we stop with the tired old clichés that treat emotions as a weakness, either in sports or in life in general? I asked Wemby about why that is. Here’s his response: “That’s a tough question. I think it’s first and foremost a fear of judgment. Like this feeling that you have to act a certain way, social codes, I guess. Personally, I refuse to carry the burden of having to hide my emotions.” Source is his X and his newspaper linked here: https://www.lequipe.fr   submitted by   /u/WEMBY_F4N   to   r/nba [link]   [comments]
