Forward motion. The NBA's Gary Forbes scores on his dreams.

摘要

Everything about Gary Forbes hints at vigor. The 6-foot, 7-inch basketball player is 220 pounds of pure muscle and goes head-to-head with some of the biggest, most athletic guys on the planet each week. He spends every day on the court, running drills and perfecting his shot so, come game day, he and his team can take on the toughest competition.There's little room for vulnerability in the game, which is why Forbes didn't broadcast news of his type 1 diabetes when he was diagnosed at age 19 as a college sophomore. "At first I tried to keep it to myself," says the 26-year-old Toronto Raptor. "I just didn't want to look at it as a sickness. I live ahealthy lifestyle, and if you see me, no one would know I have diabetes."
