The result was Draftify. There's no real consensus here, but moving this to draft seems like a reasonable compromise, and WP:ATD. -- RoySmith (talk) 14:00, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

A search engine returns results primarily related to his statistics, plus two sources mentioning the draft. Per WP:NCOLLATH, a college athlete is only notable if they have gained significant attention from the media or have won a significant award, and I'm not seeing that either of these is the case. — Compassionate727 ( T· C) 21:29, 6 May 2018 (UTC)

- Weak Keep In addition to the sources that mention him declaring for the draft, I was able to find this, this, and this. Not a ton of coverage, but probably enough to pass GNG barely. His brother is a top recruit btw. If the consensus here is to delete, I propose userfying the article. ~ EDDY ( talk/ contribs)~ 01:22, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
- I should note that I have would support moving to draft/userspace as well. While I maintain that he isn't currently notable, Wikipedia has lower standards for professional players. I imagine he will be notable in the near future; this article is just too soon. — Compassionate727 ( T· C) 02:18, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
- Weak Keep per above. There are just enough independent sources to justify keeping. With his entry into the draft, he is likely to have many more in the near future anyway.-- TM 10:20, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
- Delete He has not even played in one professional game and his collegiate career is not enough to show notability. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 21:53, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Delete or move to draft per TOOSOON. Hasn't played a minute on the professional level. sixtynine • whaddya want? • 23:17, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
- Keep per substantial cpverage in reliable independent sources. Was a star in high school. Has made some waves in college. And is expected be drafted by a pro team. All covered extensively. FloridaArmy ( talk) 02:22, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
- Move to user space/draftify - I was going to be a weak keep but saw this in the paper[ [1]]. From the article, he's a skinny 6-foot-10 forward who averaged 10.5 points and 7.5 rebounds last season, has started just 21 college games, weighs under 190 pounds, wasn’t named to the first, second or third all-conference teams in the middling Mountain West, wasn’t among the 69 players (including four from the Mountain West) invited to the NBA Draft combine in Chicago next week and doesn’t appear in any mock drafts. It's WP:TOOSOON, but I suspect that whatever happens on May 30th at the draft declaration deadline, he'll get more coverage and we can revisit. TimTempleton (talk) (cont) 20:22, 21 May 2018 (UTC)
