  • Keep Meets NBASKETBALL as he was on the Egyptian national team. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 15:32, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • If that's the case, I don't think we're looking at the same NBASKETBALL.. JTtheOG (talk) 18:35, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: The text of WP:NBASKETBALL does not afford notability to players on national-level basketball teams, so keep rationales relying on it are unconvincing. Relisting to give a chance for GNG-qualifying sources to be identified.

@Mahmoud The Beast: That's awesome. Since the last five are copies of eachother pasted on different websites, those are three additional sources that mention him. Any way you can flesh out the article by incorporating the information from these articles to better establish his notability? JTtheOG (talk) 01:23, 3 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - If this is the only coverage on him then he fails WP:GNG and the article should be deleted. None of the sources in the article go towards GNG and all of the articles listed above (five of them being the same) are from June 2021. He has to have significant coverage over a longer period of time. If there is more then it is probably in the Egyptian media. I did find this article but I don't have enough knowledge on Egypt to know if this is a reliable source. Alvaldi (talk) 10:14, 5 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment: as a result of this discussion I have proposed changing the Basketball player guidelines which are now very US-centered. I would like to know others think about this. See Wikipedia talk:Notability (sports) --H-Hurry (talk) 18:20, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep notable enough in the history of Egyptian basketball. Someone looked in Arabic sources? SportsOlympic (talk) 20:43, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
