Fails all levels of notability. Still in college after signing with a college that just recently moved up to division 1, then transferring to a junior college. Closest he comes to an athlete exception to GNG was being an honorable mention on McDonald's high school all Americans which is not enough. No coverage beyond what would be expected for a good high school athlete in a major metropolitan area. Not for nothing, this article reeks of being the work of a PR agent.

  • Delete - doesn't meet WP:GNG or WP:NBASKETBALL. As an aside, it feels silly that someone can't say "per nom" if the nominatior does a good job laying out the reasons for AfD. In an extreme case a perfectly-written, obvious AfD case would never be resolved because no one would reply and admins would assume there were no opinions on the case.

  • Delete This guy is bottom of the barrel. He was recruited by Eastern Michigan University, which has a program I can rip on because I attended there. Its athletics are abysmal. Supposedly he had a offer from Duke, but he went to Grand Canyon, which says he was not really all that good of a player. Even at Grand Canyon he played only 6 minutes in a game. So he then goes to Paris Junior College, which most people in Texas probably have not heard of. He may turn his career around at some point and be notable, but he is no where near being such now. He is probably in the bottom fifth of current college basketball players, and that may well be over rating him.John Pack Lambert (talk) 01:57, 7 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as still nothing at all actually convincing solidifying his own independently notable article. SwisterTwister talk 05:27, 7 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
