Examples:
- In another article, it was mentioned that both Alabama defenders trapped Davis in an effort to force the ball out of North Carolina’s best playmaker. When Davis whipped the ball back to Withers spotted up just to the left of the top of the key, Grant Nelson saw no reason to close out hard on a big man who had attempted 19 threes all season and had sank only four of them.
- In one article, it was stated that Alabama defeated North Carolina 89-87 in the Sweet 16 of Men’s March Madness. Grant Nelson scored a layup and drew a foul on Withers at the other end, giving Alabama a lead that it didn’t relinquish.
- In one article, it was stated that Noah Lyles won the men's 100 meters at the U.S. Olympic track and field trials, but in another article about the same event it was mentioned that Sha'Carri Richardson fell short of qualifying for Paris in women's 200.
