Hayward: The NBA thinks that whites are not good at defending. Artay faces me and asks the ball and says Bieber is defending him.

August 10th News Former NBA player Gordon Hayward said in a show that there has always been a stereotype in the NBA that white players have poor defense.

Hayward said: "There is a stereotype in the NBA that when facing the defense of white players, everyone wants to play singles. Although I have been defending very hard and trying to change this stereotype, people still think so and target me on the offensive end."

Hayward also told a story: "I remember one year when I played against the Lakers on behalf of the Jazz, it seemed like a preseason game. I went to the court against Artest, and he looked at me, then looked back at Kobe, and directly reached out to ask for the ball and said, 'Hey, Kobe, give me the ball later, I want to play singles at the low post. See who is defending me, it's Justin Bieber who is defending me!' What can I do? Do I want to fight him? I don't want to fight Artest."
