College statistics[edit]

What exactly does "college statistics" mean? I thought "college" refers to an educational institution. Shouldn't it be "college basketball statistics" or something similar?

I guess that "number of books read: one" would not fit here, as it would be considered disparaging? This article is titled: "Kemba Walker recently read his first book". But he did finish some courses and is going to get a college degree. -- 81.3.214.193 (talk) 20:57, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Team USA Contributions[edit]

Kemba Walker has had illustrious careers in both the NCAA and NBA, but I see that his contributions to Team USA have been left out. After being named the captain for the 2019 FIBA World Cup team, I decided to look at his Wiki page to see more about his career and ended up finding nothing. I went over to the Team USA website and found sufficient statistics if anyone feels so inclined to add a section on this. <https://www.usab.com/basketball/players/mens/w/walker-kemba.aspx> Cheers Jgately1124 (talk) 20:50, 3 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"High school career" section includes a quasi-advertisement[edit]

"He was able to play in the elite New York City Gauchos, the premier AAU basketball program for youth" seems pretty editorial. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:F470:6:4001:915C:59B7:94E1:99F0 (talk) 15:55, 21 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DELETE THE PIC[edit]

Kemba is on the C's and here to stay. He doesn't need a reminder of the Hornets dumping him on the curb when he goes on his own Wikipedia— Preceding unsigned comment added by IAmTheSmartMan (talk • contribs) 17:34, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
