The Associated Press is reporting that the Brooklyn Nets plan to keep out NBA-er Jason Collins around for a while longer:
The Nets plan to sign Collins to a second 10-day contract, a person with knowledge of the situation said Monday.
Collins signed his original deal on Feb. 23, becoming the NBA's first openly gay player, and it expires Tuesday.
The Nets then will re-sign him for another 10 days on Wednesday, the person told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the plans haven't been made public.
After that, the Nets would have to sign him for the rest of the season if they wanted to keep him.
Excellent news!
You can see Jason debut on home court to a standing ovation by the crowd below.
Go Jason! Go Nets!
