Shabazz Muhammad gets stumped

Jason Jordan spoke with Shabazz Muhammad recently at the HoopHall Classic for ESPN, and according to Jason,
[I] …we manage to stump him slightly with, by his own admission, the simplest yet most complex question he’s heard in quite some time: “How do you stop Shabazz Muhammad?”

“That’s a good one,” he said.

Muhammad’s got an answer, but it’s obvious that he doesn’t want to come across as cocky. He hesitates, seemingly by design, smiles and settles on, “Well, my dad [Ron Holmes] and I train so hard on so many different aspects of my game that it’s given me the ability to hurt teams in a lot of different ways. Let’s just say it’d be really hard.” [/I]

Muhammad’s Bishop Gorman squad takes on Findlay Prep tomorrow at 5pm Eastern on ESPNU.

Anthony Bennett plays for Findlay Prep but is a game time decision for the #3 ranked high school in the country. Check out the game to see if Winston Sheppard and Findlay Prep can do anything about Muhammad and his #16 team.
