About Salman
How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?
Lanky forward that can knock down the catch and shoot and also shoot off the dribble. Crash the glass hard and grab rebounds. Rim protection and on-ball defense are good. Can run the floor and really find the open man either in the half court or in transition. Soft touch around the rim. Really strive at the midrange with 1-2 dribble pull ups or hezi pulls.
Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?
I want to win, that's just how it is.
Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?
I play with Powerhouse MN on the Puma Circuit.
What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?
To always uplift teammates. You have to understand that mistakes happen it's not just apart of the game but also life but what you did is in the past and can't fix it so you have to just keep going.
Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.
I'm Somali, so all my life I have been called names like pirate so on and so forth but I never let it affect me and who I am. After I picked up basketball in 6-7th grade it was just something I liked playing. It wasn't until 8th grade that I really wanted Basketball to mean something more to me so know I strive to make out. But after I told people and they laughed. Time to prove them wrong.
What type of college are you looking for?
It doesn't matter to me what college i'm looking for D1, D2, D3, Juco, NAIA it doesn't matter, as long as I can play at the next level it would be great. Would love to play for any college.

Salman is emerging as one of Minnesota’s most underrated prospects, as he has quietly had a great summer with Powerhouse. He has a long and lanky 6’4” frame which he can use to impact winning in a variety of ways. He is a well rounded scorer, being a threat from the outside and he is able to work himself inside for finishes. He is also a great rebounder and shot blocker for his position. Hussein will be transferring to East Ridge for his senior season, adding a bunch of versatility.
