Muslim Basketball

Taking down the only undefeated team left gets you #1 in my book. Great games from the stars of the squad, Adeeb and Aadil, showing why they’re some of the league's best players, and big Sal bringing the ultimate passion every week. Baysan is looking like the squad to beat at the moment, and rightfully so, 5-1 and looking to keep the momentum going.

Squad was down some important pieces this week, so I can’t drop them too far. Still elite offensively, and just lost to a really good opponent in my eyes. This game showed some of Gaza's flaws however, and they need a consistent second option to take pressure off of Mahdy when he’s not scoring 30 a game.

Another W for Mana and co. Not really a surprise here as the opponent was inferior, however, the game was closer than I would’ve liked to see from the squad. They were down Ehsan this week, and they definitely need his scoring to continue to be elite. Still a top 3 team defensively, they just need to be more efficient offensively to continue to be successful.

Great bounce back against a solid opponent this week, if the squad continues to get contributions from their role players, they won’t lose another game this season. Omar had a great game again, and Shaz did his thing as well. 3 3s from Hamza and 2 from Malik will make this team impossible to beat on a consistent basis. A bit undersized but they make up for it with passion.

Missing star PG Hassan this week, and got the W with guest Mike Knight. Contributions from the backcourt are why Rafah got the W this week however, Hashem with 14 points and elite efficiency and Habi with 5 steals bringing them both 9 steals combined, is what really got them going. Great team all around and looking to see them continue the momentum next week against a great squad. 4 game win streak and counting.

Loss against a really good team this week, and losers of 2 in a row, however, they were down two starters this week so I can’t put them at too much fault. Yet to see who captain Fursan decides to pickup for Muj, and idk if we’ll see them add someone for the rest of the season. However, still a really good team defensively, I just think they need a little more juice offensively to continue to win games.

A good team win against a team with some great backcourt play. Sal and Ali both did their thing with 15+ each on good efficiency, and cap Shaf with 11 assists showing off the IQ. Good game all around from the squad and continuing to build momentum and chemistry. Very balanced win this week showing the teams depth.

Wow Musa came to play, had to have shown why he felt like he should’ve been #1 overall and made a strong case for it. 38 and 17 is crazy. But, it’s a team game and that showed with them losing by 15. They need more contribution from Moayad and Khaled if they want to continue to get Ws. It can’t be all on Musa’s shoulders, because in the second half, their offense fizzled out with no additional options coming through. Still a great team, looking to see them bounce back next week with a W.

Really good bounce back after a questionable loss last week, the uncs on the squad really came to play this week, with Deep and Amir dropping 50 combined. Great team game all around, and really showed their chemistry this week. Didn’t get to watch much of the game this week, but, when you’ve got the players they have, any given week they can get the W.

Much needed win for the squad and they got it. Still better than the record states in my opinion, but they finally got some contribution from some role players this week. Medo in double digits and khalied with 19 rebounds. Big win and looking to see the team get some more momentum off this win.

I honestly was shocked they lost this game, and I think it comes down to the team not really knowing how to play with one another. Still think this is a team nobody really wants to play, because if they figure it out, they’ll be scary. I think they need to get Mo some more shots, because he’s a sniper, and they’re not really utilizing him like they should. But, they could figure it out at any given moment.

Tough loss against a good opponent, and everyone was in foul trouble LOL, once again down a starter in Marwan, and they needed him. You can’t beat a good team when two starters are in foul trouble pretty much from the tip. I also think Ameer needs to emerge as a true 3rd option if they want to win games. He’s been passive this season and I think they can benefit from him being a little more aggressive offensively.

Down Islam for the rest of the season, Baraa came to play, but it still wasn’t enough for the team to get a W. They really need to continue to utilize their size, because they’re a pretty big team. Maybe picking up lil bro will make them more competitive, because they need to get some momentum

Still the only team without a win, and arguably their most competitive game yet. Lost by 1 in a nailbiter, which shows that they can compete with some good teams. However, I’m interested to see if Zain gets a suspension for the two techs post game. They really need to get some momentum going especially with the playoffs around the corner if they wanna turn things around.
