Mohamad Farahani Mohamad Farahani 6'4" | PG Novi | 2024 State MI is a talented sophomore guard in the state of Michigan. I was recently sent some of his recent film, including some from the highly regarded Pangos Midwest Camp. Let’s go over some of what I saw from these videos.

STRENGTHS
– Able to pull up for his jumper on a dime

– Showed 3 point range with his jumper
– Able to finish at the rim in traffic

SUMMARY
Mohamad Farahani Mohamad Farahani 6'4" | PG Novi | 2024 State MI is definitely a high level prospect in the Michigan’s class of 2024. There’s a lot of really exciting aspects to his game that will transfer into future success on the basketball court. Farahani has areas to improve, but these are aspects of his game that could naturally progress as he expands his game. He’s floated a bit under the radar early in his high school career, but I don’t think that will last long. Farahani is a player that will make a lot of noise in due time.
