External links modified[edit]

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Victor Oladipo. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

Dad from Nigeria?[edit]

An IP made a malformed edit, which got reverted. In it, they cited a video, where he says (at 1:17) that his dad was born in Nigeria, not Sierra Leone.[1] Some sources say both his parents were from Nigeria.[2] It seems that SI in March 2013 wrote that his dad said he was born in Sierra Leone.[3]—Bagumba (talk) 12:23, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Change Oladipo team?[edit]

The Harden trade was finalized; Victor Oladipo is currently on the roster of the Houston Rockets. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shaleenparikh1 (talk • contribs) 05:16, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Shaleenparikh1: Welcome to Wikipedia. See the announcement here. Oladipo was not part of the Harden trade, despite early reports. It's rumored to be part of a separate deal now. It's why we're not in a hurry to use breaking news based on unnamed sources. See WP:SPORTSTRANS for information on how these transactions are usually handled here.—Bagumba (talk) 05:59, 15 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

He is already off the roster, and LeVert is there: https://www.espn.com/nba/team/roster/_/name/ind/indiana-pacers 2A01:36D:111:D202:55A4:49F3:6786:3348 (talk) 21:02, 16 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Already done.—Bagumba (talk) 09:25, 17 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Music[edit]

This man has multiple albums out with big time features. It should be added to the article as its own section with a discography. natemup (talk) 01:58, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sonics?[edit]

article is protected rn but it says Oladipo plays for the Seattle Supersonics. That team hasn’t existed since 2008 24.187.73.36 (talk) 01:18, 3 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
