  • PAU GASOL

    LA Lakers

    “I remember very well learning [on November 8, 1991] that Magic Johnson was HIV positive. It was one of those moments that stays with you your whole life, and that’s why I speak out about HIV/AIDS today.”


  • AL HORFORD

    Atlanta Hawks

    “One of the biggest drivers of HIV is stigma. By putting the issue out there in the open, we can help end this epidemic.”


  • RUSSELL WESTBROOK

    Oklahoma City Thunder

    “So many lives have been affected by HIV/AIDS. Silence can be the biggest challenge to fighting this devastating disease. Together, we can lend our voices to help generate more awareness and knowledge to everyone.”


  • CANDICE WIGGINS

    Minnesota Lynx

    “HIV affected my family. In 1991, my father [former professional baseball player] Alan Wiggins, died of AIDS. When I was a kid no one talked about it. Today, I’m proud to be able to speak up for my dad and everyone else
    affected by this disease.”

ABOUT THE PARTNERSHIP

The NBA has partnered with Greater Than AIDS to mobilize fans, teams and local communities in response to AIDS in the United States and reduce the stigma associated with the disease. The campaign builds on the league’s longstanding tradition of supporting social causes, including global HIV/AIDS, as part of NBA Cares. The campaign includes new television and radio public service ads (PSAs) featuring NBA / WNBA players, including Pau Gasol (LA Lakers), Al Horford (Atlanta Hawks), Russell Westbrook (Oklahoma City Thunder) and Candice Wiggins (Minnesota Lynx), whose father, former professional baseball player Alan Wiggins, died of AIDS in 1991. The PSAs, which debut across NBA media assets and other Greater Than AIDS media platforms this month, direct to a custom here for resources and information.
