Is it correct if I ask :What sports does he play? Or should I ask :What sport or which sport? I�m a bit confused now:) |

As it goes, they are all fine, as it is the guy who is playing the sports, whether it be one or more sports, it is one person doing it. |

What sports is fine. That is what I would say, because he might play more than one sport. But - what/which sport is he best at?
Edit: yes, actually, any of those is fine. Sport is a general term, covering all sports. If you say which sport does he play? that is alluding to only one sport. Maybe. Actually, I am a bit confused now.

Personally, I would lean toward "what" vs "which" since there are SO many sports he may play and which tends to imply choosing one out of a selection. As for the rest, I agree all three are okay.
