 * Was just coming to T:TDYK to make sure this was nominated. Good to see it is. Article was newly created on March 31. Over 3k characters of prose. The problem is with the hook. I know that the bone pierced the skin, but that's not stated in the article; it just says he suffered a compound fracture. Either add that text into the article, or we can go with an ALT hook... – Muboshgu (talk) 16:12, 4 April 2013 (UTC)


 * ALT1 ... that Kevin Ware`s ankle injury during the Elite Eight resulted in sympathetic comments from Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, and Kevin Durant?


 * The alternate looks good. Albacore (talk) 13:15, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
