This draft's references do not show that the subject meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion for sports. The draft requires either:

evidence that the subject meets any of the specific criteria for sports;

or multiple published secondary sources that:

provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, not just brief mentions or routine announcements;
are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
are independent: not connected to the subject, such as interviews, press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.

Please add references that meet these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.

Comment: The current information in the article does not claim anything which would demonstrate a pass of WP:NBASKETBALL. Therefore, it falls back to generic WP:SPORTSCRIT. All the current references are WP:PRIMARY and/or database inclusions, which cannot count towards notability for both WP:SPORTSCRIT and WP:BIO. Therefore, notability is not demonstrated at present.

Comment: See Help:Referencing for beginners and Help:Your first article. An infobox does not an article make. Bobby Cohn 🍁 (talk) 19:32, 18 March 2026 (UTC)
