About Mateen
Expert Analysis
Philip Gray | Prep Hoops Scout
Extremely switchable on Defense with his size and strength. Can play point when called upon and runs it comfortably. His biggest weapon is when he attacks the paint. He is really good at absorbing contact and still finishing with finesse at the fingertip point of the ball contact, which tells me that he is even stronger than he looks. He gives great effort on both ends, and he is very mentally in tune with the game.
