BallisLife.com

[edit]

All the references in the text to Ballislife.com seem dated. It appears the award is now maintained by GrassrootsHoops.net. I'm not sure how BallisLife is curently related, or if they merely provide another platform to publicize the content. I've updated the citation for the list, but the prose needs tweaking. The BallisLife mentions are sourced to ESPN, but ESPN HS has been defunct for years.—Bagumba (talk) 08:42, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@TonyTheTiger Pinging you if you are interested, being the FL nominator. Regards. —Bagumba (talk) 08:47, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Height

[edit]

Seems there should be metric conversions displayed for the heights per MOS:CONVERSIONS.—Bagumba (talk) 09:30, 30 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Lew Acinder is also a 2-times winner?

[edit]

Page says (2024-01-16): "(left to right): Jerry Lucas, Kareem-Abdul Jabbar and LeBron James are recognized as the only two-time winners of Mr. Basketball USA."

This quote seems wrong. Please correct. 213.119.144.55 (talk) 03:24, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Update: Oh, I see, that was Kareem A-J's name. Maybe the article can be changed in some way to be clearer, though, for example by writing the one name next to the other 213.119.144.55 (talk) 03:35, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
