Basketball

Former NBA player Jason Collins and her long-time partner, Oscar-nominated producer Brunson Green, officially got married in Austin, Texas. Collins is the first active player in NBA history to come out publicly. This wedding is not only a witness to their love, but also a major milestone in the sports world.

The wedding scene was beautifully decorated, with guests gathered, and many relatives, friends and celebrities came to congratulate. Octavia Spencer, an actress who worked with Glenn on the film "Helping" and former Collins teammate Richard Jefferson, were reportedly present at the wedding.

Jason Collins, born in 1978, is a former NBA professional basketball player, a center forward of 2.13 meters tall, and has played for six teams including the Nets and the Hawks in his career. On April 29, 2013, Collins announced his debut, becoming the first active athlete in the North American professional sports league. Kobe applauded and expressed his support when he came out.

Collins and Green's romance began in 2014. The two met at a party and got engaged in 2023 at the Los Angeles Lakers' "Pride Night" event. He once said: "I was under tremendous pressure before coming out. After coming out, I felt relieved, received support from fans and teammates, and met many new friends. I thought, why not do this earlier?"
