Zion Williamson chose Duke over Kansas solely for the free education

Zion... decided not to go to Kansas for said money or whatever occupational preferences... and instead decided he wanted to go get an education for free at Duke University... Can't a young person just change their mind and say, I'd rather not have money? I'd rather play for Coach K.

Fact ClaimCBBHotSarcastic
The literal claim is that he chose Duke for the education; the reality of high-level CBB recruiting makes this almost certainly false in the context of the FBI investigation details.

LeBron James has a fake Instagram account for creeping on people

LeBron said that Coachella looked fun, but LeBron isn't on any social media. ... ZeroDark3023. So no Twitter, no Instagram, but Coachella looked fun. ... LeBron James has a Finstagram out there that he uses to creep on people. He has a fake Instagram. ... Shocker. LeBron James, not on social media, but says that Coachella looked fun. Hmm.

While not definitively proven, many athletes are known to have 'burner' or 'finstagram' accounts. LeBron's claim that it 'looked fun' implies he saw it on social media.

Tom Brady lied about his health all season despite being on the injury report

I just couldn't help but notice that Tom Brady appeared on the injury report a lot this year. And he just said, I never hurt. My arm never hurt. My body never hurt. But he was on the injury report every week.

The Patriots were notorious for listing Brady on the injury report for minor things (like a right shoulder) for years to obfuscate his actual status.
