Delete - Fails WP:GNG due to lack of significant coverage over a sufficiently significant period of time. A case of WP:TOSOON. I would say draftify but there is already a draft on him. Of the sources in the article, only this one from the Indianapolis Star goes towards GNG. I also found these two [1][2] but all three articles are written in a span of two months so this is hardly sustained coverage. Alvaldi (talk) 19:50, 12 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Alvaldi I have also attached articles from Slam Magazine ( The Largest basketball magazine in the world) as well as cbs sports, GQ, and Sports Illustrated. I believe these meet the requirements of WP:GNG as they spread out the coverage and add to the notability. Tycet (talk) 11:56, 13 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Inadequate sourcing to meet notability for WP: GNG. Not independent, and the tone made me consider WP:ADMASQ. I agree that due to the existence of an additional draft which will likely make its way to the mainspace in time, this one is not needed, as a draft or otherwise.

Delete and WP:SNOW. After tightening of WP:NSPORTS, high school kids are rarely notable. Certainly, this is a case of WP:COI/WP:PAID and @Tycet: have to declare that (and stay away from mainspace edits). 67.48.64.101 (talk) 14:33, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Dillingham is on the same team and is less notable than this athlete I don't understand why this is having action taken against it. Tycet (talk) 14:35, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Tycet At least, he has a gold medal. As I said, you're connected with him that's why you're bias towards him. Please comply with WP:COI if you want this article in mainspace. 67.48.64.101 (talk) 14:39, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have completed the compliance. Tycet (talk) 14:53, 20 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, besides what's above, I found [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] and [8]. BeanieFan11 (talk) 20:18, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
