I'll post the review for this as soon as possible. Kosack (talk) 06:19, 8 September 2018 (UTC)

Initial review

Lead

• His height here is listed as 6 ft 7 but the infobox lists him as 6 ft 9?
• "He is considered one of the top international prospects his age", statements of opinion like this need at least one strong source to support.

Early life and career

• "His father, on the other hand", not sure we need on the other hand here. "His father remained" or "his father, however remained..." perhaps would suffice?

Poitiers Basket 86 (2016–2018)

• "NBA legend Michael Jordan", be careful of WP:PEACOCK words such as legend. Obviously the majority of basketball fans would consider him so but we shouldn't influence the reader.

Career statistics

• Table needs sourcing.

Overall, very little to worry about, references all seem to check out and are well formatted. However, one issue is the date formatting. Date formats should generally be kept to how they are used in the subject's country and, as a Guinean/Frenchman, this would be dd/mm/yyyy rather than the mm/dd/yy format which is currently used, Tony Parker being a good similar example. I know it's rather tedious but it would be better to get all of the dates formatted correctly (there are a few instances of dd/mm/yyyy being used already). Placed on hold for seven days.

• @Kosack: I have changed the format of some of the dates and will continue to do so. but since I cleared up all other concerns, feel free to point out any additional issues. Runningibis (talk) 22:38, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
• All the dates are now formatted correctly. Runningibis (talk) 14:43, 9 September 2018 (UTC)

All of my issues have been addressed, I'm happy that this meets the GA criteria, promoting. Kosack (talk) 15:54, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
