Former Greenwood Star Mohammed Declares for NBA Draft

After leading the Georgetown Hoyas in scoring and rebounding as a freshman, Aminu Mohammed is testing the NBA waters.

Mohammed averaging 13.7 points and 8.2 rebounds this past season under head coach and NBA legend Patrick Ewing. He was named to the Big East’s All-Freshman team after having a standout season.

He was a three-year star at Greenwood, accumulating a five-star rating as a recruit and was named the 2021 Missouri Gatorade Player of the Year. He was selected as a McDonald’s All-American as a senior and scored over 3,000 points in his high school career.

According to reports, Mohammed will go through the pre-draft process, but has elected not to hire an agent.

Not hiring an agent allows him to withdraw his name from draft consideration and return to college if he chooses.

Some mock drafts have Mohammed predicted as a second round pick.
