Romel was born in Mexico to a Afro-American father and a Mexican Mother while his dad was playing baseball in Mexico. He moved to LA when he was still a kid and went to UNLV.
@squirmysquiggles ya he already said in a interview with Elie Seckbach "I claim both. My dad is black, my mom is mexican so I represent both sides". video is on youtube it's called "basketball star Romel Beck "
mexicans born inthe US considers themselves mexican! period not american
in mexico yes hes considered mexican that i agree with you but if you take the way americans of mexican descent use their national identity as a mexican he would not be considered a mexican
rommel beck is from Etiwanda, California, he is African American. He played at UNLV for two years. Just because he is light skinned with soft hair doesn't mean he is Mexican. Kobe Bryants dad played for Italy does that make him Italian? No. Players who don't make it in the NBA play overseas.

hmmm? well if he is, thenhe's not the la raza kind he has no spanish surname ior 1st name so that there should tell you something
i doubt hes mexican, and playing for a national team does not mean your that nationality, people from other ocuntries play for US teams in the olympics so...........
castro isnt mexican? i know lots of spanish and latinon people named romel. and u have to be born in the country that u play for... therefore he is mexican.
that aside, he was born in mexico. look it up
p.s. who among all the players that played for the united states national team was born in another country?

he isnt mexican, he's a mexican citizen but by chicano/ mexican-american standards he isnt mexican look at his name
bill richardson is hispanic but yet youdisregard hom becausehis name is richardson.
romell beck isno different except hes not mexican.
are americans of mexican descent mexican or american? i say that because yousay he is only mexican but left out his american half.
so if he lives in mexico and plays in mexico that makes him mexican?
what about mexicans in american?
