FILE - In this March 11, 2020, file photo, Atlanta Hawks guard Vince Carter, right, hugs former Hawk Dominique Wilkins as he leaves the court following an NBA basketball game against the New York Knicks in Atlanta. When the NBA announced the night of March 11 that it would be halting play because of the pandemic, word filtered through the arena and all the way down to the bench of the shocking developments. The fans began chanting for Carter to enter a game for the Hawks in the closing seconds. Carter had already announced it would be the final season of his brilliant 23-year career, longer than anyone else has played in the NBA. The fans sensed that the season might be over. The Hawks sent him back to the court. The Knicks respectfully backed away to give him an open look at a 3-pointer.  (AP Photo/John Bazemore, File)

Free agent quarterback Colin Kaepernick participates in a workout for NFL football scouts and media, Saturday, Nov. 16, 2019, in Riverdale, Ga.  Kaepernick is still blackballed from the NFL four years after protesting racial injustice.

FILE - In this Oct. 18, 2019, file photo, Kyle Larson sits in his car before the final practice for a NASCAR Cup Series auto race at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kan. Kyle Larson was fired by Chip Ganassi Racing, a day after nearly every one of his sponsors dropped the star driver for using a racial slur during a live stream of a virtual race. Of course, in a sport with an extremely checkered racial history, he's already lined up a new gig for 2021 at Hendrick Motorsports. (AP Photo/Colin E. Braley, File)
