"After protests from his fellow players..."
Ambiguous statement in the introduction. Were the players protesting against Johnson (for example, saying he didn't deserve the MVP award) or in support of him (for example, saying he was risking his health by returning to play)? Billfalls (talk) 00:00, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
- Added a brief clarification in the lead. There probably shouldn't be too much on it in the lead as it is supposed to be a summary of the body, but the extra addition should make it clearer. Giants2008 (Talk) 17:17, 21 August 2023 (UTC)
Semi-protected edit request on 24 August 2023
Template:Edit semi-protected B&W photo of Pat Riley and Magic Johnson incorrectly identifies the third person in the photo as Jerry West. That individual is not Jerry West, and that citation should be removed. Goyato (talk) 00:24, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
- File:Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. The source the image was taken from says Template:Tq ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me! 00:32, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
- Assuming it's this photo, that is Jerry West with Pat Riley and Magic. The source the image comes from says so as well. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:10, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
- That's not Jerry West. – 2.O.Boxing 01:12, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, it is. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:30, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
- The source is wrong. This was West in 1988, a year before the photo in question. – 2.O.Boxing 01:44, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
- Yes, it is. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:30, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

Billionaire
Should be added that he is a billionaire according to Forbes.com & CNN ([1], [2]). 65.88.88.56 (talk) 22:09, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 8 February 2025
Template:Edit semi-protected Magic Johnson was 6'7-1/4" in socks at the 1992 Olympic games. If you look at any photograph or video of Larry Bird and Magic Johnson together, Magic is easily 2" shorter than Bird, who was listed at 6'9", but was actually 6'9-3/4". 66.186.107.210 (talk) 08:08, 8 February 2025 (UTC)
