 * Symbol redirect vote 4.svg I've added ALT1 for consideration.—Bagumba (talk) 06:24, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
 * thank you. But maybe you want to mention the association between them, as a promising pair in the school's history? Perhaps add another sentence based on the sources? Yoninah (talk) 12:39, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Can you clarify the "association" that you are referring to? Perhaps you are mistaking this hook about his college teammate, Shareef O'Neal, with Brown's high school pairing with former teammate Cole Anthony. If you meant to combine both, I'm struggling to come up with a hook within the 200-character limit.—Bagumba (talk) 12:50, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Sorry, I wasn't looking at his college career. Yes, ALT1 works, and is verified and cited inline. I removed some repetition ("basketball player" ... "player" ... "basketball hall of fame") from the hook. Rest of review per Runningibis. ALT1 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 12:56, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
