NBA Comeback Player of the Year Award
- ... that the NBA Comeback Player of the Year Award was cancelled, reportedly because of drugs? Source: "The NBA has eliminated its Comeback Player of the Year award and drugs reportedly were a reason" (Fort Worth Star-Telegram), "The six-year Comeback Player-of-the-Year Award now is history presumably because the award winners are annually becoming drug- or alcohol-rehab players" (The News Tribune)
- ALT1: ... that half of the winners of the NBA Comeback Player of the Year Award were returning from substance dependency issues? Source: "Multiple recovered drug users were honored in that six-year span: Bernard King won the maiden award in Golden State in 1980-81, with New Jersey's Micheal Ray Richardson (1984-85) and the Clippers' Marques Johnson (1985-86) winning the last two before the league office mandated a switch to the Most Improved Award for image reasons." (ESPN.com), "The award had been won three times by a player returning from a drug or alcohol dependency problem — Bernard King (1981) Michael Ray Richardson (1985) and Marques Johnson (1986)" (Fort Worth Star-Telegram)

New article of good lenght and with good sources. Didn't find any copyright issues. Both hooks are short, interesting and cited in the article. QPQ is done. Consider adding more sections to make the article easier to overview, but the DYK should be good to go. Ffranc (talk) 11:27, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
