Ugonna Onyekwe edit
- ... that despite being a projected NBA Draft pick in 2003, Ugonna Onyekwe went unselected, and so he spent his entire professional career in Spain and Israel?

LinkedIn is definitely not a WP:reliable source so you're going to have to remove that reference and revise the page accordingly. Plot Spoiler (talk) 22:48, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
Notifying nominator of issue; this is not one that rises to the X level initially, as it should be fixed without too much difficulty. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:32, 17 November 2012 (UTC)
- BLP allows limited use of sources self-published by the subject per WP:BLP#Using the subject as a self-published source. I've trimmed the information cited to his Linkedin profile a little. January (talk) 20:57, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
Needs full review, with a special eye to sourcing. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:21, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
- A few issues: 1) There's some unverified material in this article. Footnote 2 doesn't seem to support the fact that he was "just the second" to be named Player of the Year twice. The first paragraph under 'College' has a number of facts that aren't mentioned in footnote 4 (at least as far as I can see). 2) Some of the material cited to his LinkedIn profile is inaccurate, or not supported. E.g. co-founding a media company since retiring from basketball. On that basis, I would question the statement that he retired from the sport "to enter the business world."
