Call it a stigma or call it fear or insecurity — you can call it a number of things — but what I was worried about wasn’t just my own inner struggles but how difficult it was to talk about them. I didn’t want people to perceive me as somehow less reliable as a teammate

Found this article fascinating and emotional. I think it was very bold for one of the most polarizing players on the Cavs to come out and speak about his battle with mental illness. We watch all of these people play sports for millions of dollars (or none in college) and don't stop to think what they might be going through because they seem so different from us. Just some food for thought. No one is ever truly alone and it is perfectly okay to talk your issues out.
