New Jersey (North): Damascus (D2)

Power Ranking Trend

Power Ranking By Week
WEEK RECORD RANK COMMENTS
Week 8 1-7 14

After a little bit of smack talk, Tripoli quieted the Damascus faithful, with only 4 players……. Rookie sensation and fan favorite Omar Sehwail struggled, Omar Hussein struggled, and Omar Qasem looked good. S/o to Elias and where was this all seasons?!?!!? Damascus is getting bounced in the first round, sorry not sorry. 

Week 7 1-6 12

They move up simply for keeping the game tight. Apparently, no one other than Omar can score on this team. Omar Hussein had 13, Omar Sehwail with 16 and Omar Q with 12. They could have won this game had someone other than an Omar contribute.

Week 6 1-5 14

After winning a nail bitter last week, they lost to a team they should have easily defeated. Key to stopping Damascus, stop the O’s and you win.

Week 5 1-4 12

12 makes as a team from 3, The Omar trio combined for 41 and Mr. Hussein had a season high 31 on 60% shooting from the field. That boy was hotter than fish grease, on a summer's day. I leave the predictions to Lonzo, but c'mon Damascus vs Cairo??

Week 4 0-4 16

Still winless, but they fought hard throughout the game. At least they found someone to assist Mr. Hussein and turns out its the youngest Sehwail brother. This is not an 0-4 team and I expect a win or two in the upcoming weeks.

Week 3 0-3 15

Man was that game close for no reason, it’s like Palermo wanted to lose. Someone other than Omar Hussein must score the basketball. Nice to see Hosam Karkis score in double figures, but Omar Qasem or Khaled must be better for this team.

Week 2 0-2 14

After anointing himself the best player in the league (which btw is very questionable) Omar H did play well this game. 21 points on 6-9 from the field is nothing to laugh at and is certainly one of the most efficient games he’s had. Youngin’ Omar Sehwail had 11 points while no one else scored more than 8. This team will always play hard defensively, their kryptonite is their lack of offense outside of Mr. Hussein. 

Week 1 0-1 14

Lost by forfeit, thank you, you saved me a lot of time writing this. 

Preseason 0-0 14
