Waleed Muhammad is a six-foot-two-inch 2027 Hopkins (Richfield transfer) guard that finished out the AAU season with Real Phenom. Muhammad’s ball handling and quickness enable him to get to the mid-range space for pull-ups and good spot-up shooting skill. Muhammad’s quick handle and laterally speed going downhill makes him a threat a driving scorer from the perimeter.

Waleed has talent as a scorer and we saw him adapt and play the point guard spot well for Richfield leading them to the Final Four of Class AAA. He had Select off to a great April start and had a ton of people talking.

All the moving around playing for four different high schools (now with Hopkins) and switching AAU teams, it’s led to some schools looking to other lead guards. But a good year at Hopkins and an early chance to play in college could lead to Waleed being the scholarship talent many think he can be.

Waleed Muhammed is a six-foot-two-inch 2027 Hopkins guard that is an attacker in transition whenever possible. Muhammad is a solid finisher at the rim that he showed a little bit more ability to finish above the rim this summer. Muhammed can shoot the ball from the perimeter that he tries to balance with his driving from the perimeter. Muhammad operates as a secondary ball handler and secondary creator.

Waleed continues to get better with each watch and he turned in a well rounded performance in a blowout win. He keeps becoming more confident with his shot from the perimeter, knocking down pull-up jumpers from three and from the mid-range. He is still one of the best attacking guards in the state, using his quick burst and physicality to convert around the rim through contact.
