New Jersey (North): Medina (D2)

Power Ranking Trend

Power Ranking By Week
WEEK RECORD RANK COMMENTS
Week 9 6-3 6

Bilal is a clear cut candidate for DPOY, but they really could have used Anas and his scoring against the high powered Kazan offense. If you would have told me Pat was held to 2 points, I would have bet my life savings that Medina got the W. The fact remains, Medina is a top tier contender, and they will absolutely be chasing a championship this post season.
Week 8 6-2 4

Comeback player of the year, Anas, and defensive player of the year candidate, Bilal, brought this “out of nowhere” team to life. Word around MB is Bilal is getting the KD treatment, and people are referring to him as a snake for leaving his family. What is more important, winning or loyalty? Bilal chose winning.
Week 5 4-1 2

Nobody was going to beat a Suba team coming off of their first lost in 2 seasons. Medina is a bit banged up, no Big O, no Samna, Jawad checked in just to be a fifth body. They were hurt, but 27 point on 30 shots from Biggz and Anas won’t cut it. They have to be scoring around 40 points and on a decent percentage, especially without Big O in the lineup.
Week 2 2-0 4

This team is very good. Tremendously deep. Talent everywhere around the floor. They shot 2/19 from 3 and if you were watching the game, I don’t think you’d believe that was true. Biggz and Anas will be good for 25-40 points per game, add a handful more from Big O, Jawad has shown he can be a first option, and a couple putbacks from Samna - you got a legit squad.
Week 1 1-0 4

I think someone hit a game winner in this one? Some kid was walking around the gym for an hour telling everyone he hit a game winner. Anas Zubi showed some flashes of his old self, dropping 17. Biggz also added 17, Jawad contributed 16, but none more important than the last 2 points that got Medina the lead with a couple seconds left.
Preseason 0-0 5

on’t call is a comeback. Anas Zubi returns and if he’s able to produce 75% of what he used to, you have a championship level squad in Medina. Big O, Biggz, Anas, Jawad, Shareef…that’s a load. Add Omar ‘Bunnies’ Elsamna and Himey and you have a really well rounded team that can beat you in many ways.
