Shabazz Muhammad suffered a high ankle sprain earlier in the [URL=”http://rise.espn.go.com/boys-basketball/articles/2011/07/26-Las-Vegas-recap-III.aspx?pursuit=BoysBasketball”]Adidas Super 64 in Las Vegas[/URL], but that didn’t keep him from playing in the championship game.

Muhammad scored 22 and Winston Shepard had 19, but Dream Vision couldn’t overcome Texas Assault, losing 93-78.
“I wanted to give it a go,” said Muhammad. “As long as my foot wasn’t broken, I was going to try to help my team win this championship. Unfortunately, we just came up short.”
I’m sure it was a bittersweet end to Muhammad’s AAU career, but rest assured he will be ready to go when high school season rolls around.
