Casper Ware Sr.[edit]

The subject of this Wikipedia article, Casper Ware Jr., is the son of Casper Ware Sr., who also played basketball. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/1704443-everything-you-need-to-know-about-nba-star-studded-summer-league-the-drew includes:

However, the original legend of The Drew was Suttle's former teammate, Casper Ware.
Ware won three Drew League titles as a player and another two as a coach, along with an MVP Award, which his son would win as well three decades later.
He graduated high school back in 1979, but Ware lingered around the league into the '80s and beyond, showing off his speed and range along the way.

Teamed with Dane Suttle, Sr. to form one of the city's best backcourts ever. Lightning-quick, Ware was a three-time all-city performer and could bomb from NBA 3-point range even though the shot was only worth two. Ware was a JUCO All-American and finished at Loyola Marymount, but his college accolades pale in comparison to his street credibility. "I can't give him enough credit," said former Manual Arts coach Reggie Morris, Sr. "He lingered in the Drew League for years."

The guy does not seem notable enough for his own Wikipedia article but likely should be mentioned in the article about his son. He is mentioned in the Drew League article. --Marc Kupper|talk 21:46, 25 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
