Your link is completely unrelated to the claim that racism is responsible for the demographics of sports. It discusses the tendency of athletes with dark skin to be described as big and strong and light skinned athletes to be described as smart or knowledgeable.
The issue is that black people are overrepresented in the NBA. This is a "racist outcome" per the language of an ancestor comment. Is it because the league is prejudiced against white people and keeping them out? Prejudiced against black people and expressing the prejudice, for some reason, by admitting more black players to the league? Or, could it possibly be that black people are just more likely to be good at basketball? Black people are ~15% of the US population and ~75% of the NBA. Must be an awful lot of racism there...
