For some reason the name Michael Palance is associated with the clip of Brad Pitt which includes a flashback to a basketball game. Might Palance be the player in the flashback? This couldn't be before 1987 though.

I found this blurb while looking for a tidbit about his role on GL.  That is definitely Palance, so I'll adjust the date and add "Basketball Player"     Thanks, @Xanthe I was going to do a little more research once I finished setting up the GL cast!

Added

 

Central City Mayor Bateman (Is your listing of Myron McCormack a typo? as there is an actor of that name)

 

A lot of the books I used had a lot of misinformation like this.  I fixed it.

Michael Palance

Glad you recognized him. I watched the clip several times trying to understand whether he was supposed to be young Michael or young John. On the one hand Donna says Michael's name, but on the other his hair is so dark and it's John's flashback. 

 

Per the AWHP, Brad Pitt's role was a couple of days in May 1987.
