Template talk:Did you know nominations/Sleep in the NBA

Relevant image perhaps being added

@Bruxton: A lot of the "sleep" talk was about the players being slept on but I was able to find something about both Jimmy Butler (Miami) and Nikola Jokić and Jamal Murray (Denver)'s sleep schedules.

For Jimmy: 1 and this newly-published one (also found a funny one about Jimmy sleeping with a night light but I'm just mentioning that here for fun, bc it wouldn't have a legit encyclopedic usage in the article)

For Jokić and Murry: Two really good The Athletic sources: 1 2

I'll be incorporating the 4 sources into the article some point today. Thank youSoulbust (talk) 20:30, 31 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I've incorporated the information and some pictures in the relevant area of the article now. I'm actually a big fan of both the Heat and Jokić as a player so I don't think using a picture of them could go wrong either way.

They both have interesting tidbits that could be ALT hooks too. Butler, having a specific routine to go to bed at (7 p.m.!) involving herbal tea, no screens, and cold air diffusers. Jokić meanwhile is a non-napper. Soulbust (talk) 21:02, 31 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think an image of both (two best players on either team) would be great. Now, I think the best way to get it approved and to move it to the image slot is to start a discussion on DYK talk. Bruxton (talk) 23:37, 31 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Soulbust: I guess I could move the image from prep 6 and exchange with this. We need to make sure the images are bullet proof FREE. Can you put the image here > ?Bruxton (talk) 23:42, 31 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Did you mean putting the image in this discussion?
