Removed "see also" section

The addition of the "see also" section that references an NBA player who died following a game is too soon. This man is not dead, to our knowledge, and it's simply inappropriate to make that comparison at this time. Re-adding it and complaining that it was "unexplained" ... it needs no explanation. I will continue to remove that section if it is re-added. Duckpasta (talk) 02:35, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support - I also agree that it may make sense in the future to add in a "See also" to refer to a player who passed away on the court/field. But right now is not the right time for it. - Fuzheado | Talk 02:44, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wholeheartedly agreed. Keeping that in implies something not supported in any reliable sources. Not the time. cymru.lass (talk • contribs) 02:49, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
