I read the ESPN piece, this is quite a story. The article was created April 9, and is 6061 characters (1015 words) as of this review. References are good, mostly news sources on his recent death, the first hook can be sourced to the ESPN article, and the ALT1 can be sourced to several obituaries. Personally, I prefer ALT1, and might add "with the Saigon Heat" to the end. Only small concern I can see, is that Personal life section might need to be gone over to ensure its not a close paraphrasing of the ESPN article its sourced to. Thanks for the good work!-- Patrick, oѺ∞ 20:07, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
