• Did you know that prior to becoming the film commissioner of Belize, Nigel Miguel spent seven years as the body double for Michael Jordan?

The article on Nigel Miguel cites the Michael Jordan Body Double fact from Businessweek.com, which contains a profile of Miguel for his presidency at Topline Urbanworks LLC. The cite gives a small blurb on Miguel’s history, including a short stint in the NBA and an eventual turn to acting, where he was a stand in actor for Michael Jordan in movies like Space Jam. Other sources in the article include the Star Tribune, the LA Times, and the Belize Film Commission website (nichbelize.com). I feel most if not all of the sources used are reputable locations of fact, and combined with Wikipedia’s rules on “Biographies of Living Persons”, that every statement should have a factual source to avoid removal, leads me to believe that the evidence presented is trustworthy.
            Nigel Miguel WAS drafted in the third round of the 1985 NBA draft by the LA Lakers, as the page, the source, and a second outside source (http://nbahoopsonline.com/History/Leagues/NBA/drafts/1985.html) showcases. As well as Miguel’s bio information, cross-referencing different sources saying the same general facts.

            The article avoids opinionated sources on Miguel, while keeping facts from the source without slight changes.
