It's hard to tell how many of the above are just mirroring what is written on Wikipedia, but I think the two Chicago Tribune sources (nos. 4 and 7), particularly the last one, are sufficient enough to state that at least a comparison was being made between Jordan and Swoopes. Maybe the word "frequently" would need to be removed, but not sure. Since WP:LEADCITE said citations are not necessarily required in the lead and their inclusion should be determined by consensus, I am discussing first before adding one. If nobody objects, then I think using the last Chicago Tribune with possibly a slight tweak of the wording should work fine. Or, the statement can be added later on in the article and then cited there. - Marchjuly (talk) 14:09, 5 November 2014 (UTC)
