Article tone edit

I've added a tag for the tone of this article. I've worked to fix it a little, but there's still a lot more and I could use more help. I made it through his college seasons and rookie year, but there's still more to be done. --Brewspoker (talk) 21:34, 9 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Horfords son isn’t named Giannis antetokounmpo as it currently is stated in his personal section. Current Citation is accurate and can be used to reference his sons actual name. 174.233.1.211 (talk) 02:46, 10 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Under Personal Life, it says his son is Giannis Antetoukounpo. That should be changed 108.46.177.237 (talk) 03:02, 10 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Big Al? edit

i have never heard this nickname; sports radio routinely calls him (pro) "Amazing Al" and (con) "Average Al". could we give THOSE a mention? 2601:19C:527F:A680:E42B:19E6:AF07:9508 (talk) 06:38, 9 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

I simply removed it. We should not list them in the lead unless its verifiable that its commonly used. —Bagumba (talk) 07:25, 9 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
i didn't have a problem with "Big Al" -- it was prolly a common nickname at some point. i just feel that the current nicks of "Amazing..."/"Average..." should be added. 2601:19C:527F:A680:8C5:D81B:A811:84EC (talk) 10:43, 17 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
The relevant guideline is MOS:NICKCRUFT:

Boldface is not needed for obscure ones or a long list, and those that are not well known to our readers may not need to be in the lead at all.

And it would need reliable source also.—Bagumba (talk) 10:57, 17 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
