Basketball at the 1904 Summer Olympics — The entry claims there were two high school and two elementary school championships, but historical records indicate a different set of competitions and a total of three or four events, not seven.
Fort Shaw Indian School Girls Basketball Team — The team consisted of seven players, but the listed names omit the seventh player; the seventh player is known to be Katie Snell, so the entry should include her name or note the omission.
Fort Shaw Indian School Girls Basketball Team — The claim that the team won 'World Champions' by defeating teams from 'other countries' is misleading; the 1904 tournament was not an international competition—only U.S. teams participated, so the title was promotional, not factual.

Basketball at the 1960 Summer Olympics — The pre-Olympic qualifier was not held from 13 to 20 August 1960 at the Land Rover Arena in Bologna; the correct venue and dates for the qualifier are different.

Basketball at the 1964 Summer Olympics — The United States won their sixth straight gold medal at this event, but it was actually their fifth straight gold medal (they won in 1936, 1948, 1952, 1956, and 1960, making 1964 the sixth consecutive Olympic basketball tournament but the fifth consecutive go
