Expert Analysis
Ari Rosenfeld | Prep Hoops Scout
Coming off the bench, it took Muntari a bit to feel his way into the game, but his big second half was key to squashing any hope of a Linden comeback. He was most effective using his length and athleticism to convert at and above the rim. Muntari always finds a way to impact games with his motor and mobility at his size. Scholarship-level programs will surely be attracted to the Ghanaian big man down the stretch of his senior year.

At 6-foot-9, Muntari is the other half of the Union Catholic frontcourt duo. At 6-foot-9 he’s a versatile forward that can guard multiple positions. He and Ansong will suit up with NY Rens -Marston this spring.

Muntari is a monster on the defensive side of the ball as he looks to be the lockdown anchor for his team in the paint. No shot gets by Muntari as he uses his athletic 6’8″ frame to block everything in the paint. He is also able to block jump shots on the perimeter as he will shoot out of a cannon and come out of nowhere to swat multiple jump shots in a game. On offense, his three-point shooting is what makes it difficult to guard him because not only can he shoot but he can also put the ball on the floor and get to the rim with ease.

Muntari is an athletic rim-running power forward that also has a lot of moves he can go to in the post. He is always running full steam ahead on the fastbreak looking for the throwdown jam. His footwork is impressive with his back to the basket as he can hit the fading away jump shot. Muntari can even hit you with a spin move in the post to go up for the dunk. He protects the ball well and can go up with either hand through the contact no matter who is in his way.
