Article is new enough and long enough. Who is this Rene Castro? Not sure that earned Second-team All-Northeast Conference honors.
is supported by the source.He finished fourth in the conference in scoring with 18.5 points per game while leading all of Division 1 in minutes per game with 38.3.
may be too close to the source text. Not sure that source #6 supportsPrior to the 2018 NBA draft, Mobley worked out with NBA teams Brooklyn Nets, Charlotte Hornets, Los Angeles Lakers, Utah Jazz, Sacramento Kings and Philadelphia 76ers.
What's the source for his size and weight? Hook reasomably sourced, not particularly interesting though unless you know about American sports. No copyvio or plagiarism although some close paraphrasing concerns. OK QPQ. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 15:48, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
- Just a suggestion that the sport should be named in the hook and Three-point field goal should be linked. Otherwise it is pretty meaningless to those that don't know basketball - Dumelow (talk) 16:12, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
- Rene Castro was one of his teammates in high school, it's not that important. The second team honors is supported in the source, check again. Added "basketball" to the hook. Let me know of close paraphrasing and I will fix it. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 18:13, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
- It's only the sentence I quoted which has close paraphrasing problems, seems like. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 18:35, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
- @Jo-Jo Eumerus: Are there any more issues or can this be promoted. I rephrased the sentence. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 00:51, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
- I think that reordering the "worked out with" sentence is necessary. As it is it is a close paraphrase. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 10:17, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
- Done. ~EDDY (talk/contribs)~ 12:58, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
