Prospect Spotlight: Shahid Abdul-Mumin (2020)
2020 Shahid Abdul-Mumin is ready for a breakout season.
At 6’7 the sophomore post player is very lanky, protecting the paint with blocked shots and using his length to make shots difficult. He is a great defensive presence with the ability to rebound at a high level.
“I think my strengths are my rebounding and post defense” said Abdul-Mumin.
Only a sophomore, he still has time to develop a better offensive game. He’s still working on his post moves and finishing at the rim. He also needs to get in the weight room and become stronger player.
“I spent a lot of time working on my jump shot and post moves this summer. I’m becoming more confident with shooting mid-range shots.”
Abdul-Mumin should be a focal point in Clevelands team this season, receiving as much minutes as he can handle. Playing in the metro league, he is up for a battle night in and night out.
