After scoring 40 points and leading the Minnesota Timberwolves to the win against the Oklahoma City Thunder , Andrew Wiggins used the word “gay” to describe Dennis Schroder .

Per ESPN, “I don’t know what’s wrong with him. Uh, he was just gay. He was acting crazy for no reason,” Wiggins said. “I look right through him. He’s not someone I look at as a problem. Not at all.”

After video surfaced of Wiggins’ comments about Schroder, he later posted on his Twitter account.

I have the utmost love and respect for the LGBTQIA community and I would never use any term to disrespect them in anyway.
