*Today continues "Where Are They Now?" week at SI. Stay tuned for more shows in our audio series.*

After his unlikely NBA career, Englishman John Amaechi sent a shockwave through the sports world by coming out as gay in 2007. Nets center Jason Collins followed six years later. And since then? Not a single NBA player has decided it was worth it to walk their path. SI contributor Chris Ballard flew to London to catch up with John Amaechi, learn about his life as a psychologist, and hear his thoughts on why a blossoming of openly gay players in the NBA hasn't come to pass.
